Ready for Research

Here, serious research doesn’t have to wait until graduate school

The solid foundation in science that I have today first started during my experience at Â鶹´«Ã½ when I was a student in the school’s robust science program. Like many who attend Â鶹´«Ã½, I learned to appreciate that the faculty were so willing to help us. Their doors were always open.†
