Application for Research in Biology

RBio

Due 9/28/12

 

If you are interested in enrolling in the Research in Biology class, please answer the following questions. Type your answers, print out a hard copy, and put it in the folder on my door by 5:00 PM (Dr. Sheck, 330 Bryan). RBio is for students who love biology and want to make a long term commitment to a research project. Enrollment in this class is limited and there are many more students who are qualified than I can fit into the class!

 

If you are wondering whether you should register for this class, go ahead and fill out the Drop/Add form.  The registrar will figure out if your schedule can be rearranged to add the class. Depending on the number of applicants, I may contact you for an interview in early October.
