Join us for a discussion on undergraduate research, where you will learn what
research is like, how you can get involved early, and what to expect on your first day
in the lab. Faculty and staff who have run summer research programs will discuss
what they look for in students, how to choose an advisor and project, and how to
succeed in a lab. Students who have done research during the summer and academic
year will talk about what undergraduate research is like, how to find research
opportunities, and what they learned from their experiences.
