General announcements to the department.

Enrich your lab with Honors College undergraduates

Posted on by | Leave a reply
We are pleased to announce the annual College of Science + Honors College Research Mixer happening this Friday, February 2, from 3-5 p.m. in LINC 228. This is your chance to get motivated high-achieving students in your lab to work with you and your team.

 

Bring a slide to present your work, and your best one-minute spiel to excite and inspire undergraduates about the research in your lab. After presentations there will be an hour to interact with students eager to work with you.

 

Doing research is one of the most important ways to improve a student’s educational experience in college. The outcomes are powerful and positive because faculty can engage in broader impact projects, mentor future scientists, or at least get some SOPs standardized!

 

Last year we had a great showing of faculty, who opened up spots in their labs to Honors College students. Don’t miss your opportunity. Contact Gabrielle Jameswith your RSVP or for any questions you may have.
