This Research Project course is designed to provide a formal, structured, mentored environment in which students can practice skills necessary for conducting basic research. Students will work in their mentor's research space on an individual research project chose and designed by the student with guidance from their mentor. Course directors will guide students in the selection of a research mentor and the development of a scholarship oversight committee, which will meet regularly with the student to guide the project. Mentors will provide 1:1 guidance on the development and conduct of the research project over the course of 4 semesters. Prerequisite: None. Credit: 18.
