Research Practicum I

4 Credits · Level: Graduate

Students will pursue a research practicum each semester. Students meet with a prospective research mentor and develop a 1?3 page summary of the focus of the work. Proposals are evaluated by a committee, and following approval, the students will intern with the mentor for Fall & Spring semesters. During the semester, students will meet with the course director to monitor progress. At the completion of the internship, students will write a review paper and give an oral presentation on a topic approved by their mentor, which includes their primary data. Students will be evaluated by their mentor, who completes an evaluation form, as well as by the quality of their paper and presentation. This course is only for MS in Integrative Neuroscience students.
