Biology Research Practicum

The Biology Research Practicum is designed to allow students to engage in research in the biological sciences early in their undergraduate careers. Students will work under the direction of a member of the biology faculty, often collaborating with seniors who are completing their research. Expectations include a minimum of four hours per week of lab work and attendance at Biology Department seminars and/or weekly lab meetings. This course requires advance permission of the individual research advisor, who may have additional requirements. To receive Pass/Fail credit equivalent to one course, the student must earn three terms of passing grades for the practicum experience.
