Why
participate in this program? Research experience benefits you by
enhancing your college experience, adding to your resume, introducing you to
cutting edge scientific techniques, and teaching you how scientists apply
classroom concepts in real world investigations. It gives you the opportunity
to work closely with your favorite professors, who are experts in their field
of research! Perhaps most importantly, it helps you decide whether Biology is
a good career choice for you. The
faculty in Biology are engaged in diverse research projects, including: Each
Spring semester we host a P.U.R.E. symposium on campus, where
motivated student researchers can present their results. Participation in
this symposium is optional. Fellow students and faculty attend the symposium.
It provides a great opportunity to give a scientific presentation, become
more comfortable with public speaking, and proudly put forth the results of
your research! If you
are interested in research opportunities, please contact Dr. Barbeau
or Dr. Pryor, the coordinators of
P.U.R.E. We can
answer any questions you might have and get you started on a research
project! |
