An important aspect of modern science education is the hands-on experience that exposes students to the process of science in a way not possible in the classroom. Toward this end, the majority of our courses include laboratory work, and we encourage students to collaborate with faculty in original research. Student researchers are treated as colleagues, not merely assistants. There are four vehicles for student research: Directed Individual Study (BIO401-403), Directed Individual Research (BIO422-424), Honors Thesis (BIO492-496), and the R. E. Lee Undergraduate Research Program which enables students to spend the summer doing research full-time with the faculty scientists of their choice. Current Research Projects |
