Research Rotations. 2 Credit Hours

Catalog description

Laboratory rotations will acquaint students with the research pursued by faculty members in the CSA MS Program, and help identify research projects to fulfill their thesis requirements. In addition, laboratory rotations will allow students the opportunity to explore and assess their compatibility in the laboratory environments created by potential faculty mentors and their laboratory personnel. Conversely, faculty members serving as rotation advisors will have an opportunity to evaluate students wishing to complete their MS thesis research in their laboratories. The experience should give the students an understanding of future expectations, and exposure to new experimental strategies and methodologies that may prove useful in the students' eventual thesis research.
