The WVU Experience

Finding the Right Path

Corinne Hazel

BS, Environmental Microbiology, 2026

Corinne joined the Research Apprenticeship Program in her first semester at WVU. She discovered a love for research that shaped the rest of her college experience and led her to the University of Cambridge for graduate school.

“I think I got really lucky getting placed in [Daniel Panaccione’s] lab. I loved the work right off the bat, and I immediately wanted to dive into that world even more. I had no idea what a career in research would even look like. I was just really interested in the work that I was doing.”
