Sr. Research in Biology

 

All biology majors are encouraged to complete a research project (Biology 451) during their senior year. This is your chance to try your hand at doing science and to experience the fun (and the frustration) of scientific investigation. You will find that experiments often don't go as planned, but the ones that go awry will often provide you with valuable insights and new questions to answer. During the advising period in the spring semester of your junior year, you will receive information from the biology faculty about the kinds of projects we will be supervising.  Come talk with us, and then discuss your preferences with your advisor.

Research students present their work at a departmental symposium that is open to the entire college community, and write a major paper in the format of one of the primary journals in the appropriate field.
