Directed Research. 1-

Catalog description

The faculty of the Department of Biology considers a valuable component of the curriculum. The content and extent of research projects are determined by the student and a faculty sponsor. The research may be in the lab or field and is intended to help the student develop a greater appreciation of the scientific process. While publication is not a requirement, all projects have a goal of producing publishable results. A successful experience in research can be an asset for graduate studies and many careers in biology. This course can be repeated up to eight times, or for a maximum eight credits, whichever limit is hit first. Prerequisites: BIOL 150 and BIOL 151 or BIOL 202 or BIOL 154 .
