U-RISE Seminar

Catalog description

This course is only available to students in the U-RISE program at NMSU. This course is part of that program. It includes a two-year research education program bolstered by this inclusive and affirming honors seminar series which is built into students’ curriculum and a summer internship at a research-intensive institution. Complementary activities are focused on the acquisition of knowledge, skills, and confidence building in five major areas that will prepare undergraduate student researchers to fulfill their potential toward achieving their career goals in biomedical sciences. These include: basic research skills, a quantitative-based approach to analyze and solve problems, scientific communication skills, building professional networks, and development of a science identity. May be repeated up to 12 credits.
