How does a student choose a research adviser?
Early in the program of study, the Program Director registers the student for Introduction to Research. This course provides the opportunity to do laboratory rotations with two of the program faculty members. On the basis of this experience and interaction with the faculty in courses, the student asks one of the faculty members to serve as the research adviser. The faculty member must agree to take the student, and the decision to do so will be based on the faculty member’s time, space and resources available in the laboratory, and the experience in the rotation.
