Welcome to PackTrack

Welcome to the official North Carolina State University PackTrack home page!

PackTrack is an undergraduate research program in the life sciences. This program allows freshmen and sophomores to gain hands on experience through two semesters of guided research. The spring semester teaches students to read and interpret scientific literature, analyze data, and write research proposals to prepare the student for the second semester. The fall semester of PackTrack gives students guided lab experience as they work in a research lab on campus studying their area of interest within the lab. PackTrack provides students with valuable lab skills that can transfer to any field of research as well as the resources and knowledge to pursue a career in research.
