BIOL 2390Intro to Science Research II1-4

This course is a continuation of Intro to Science Research I. It allows motivated students to continue to perform scientific research at a higher level then Science Research I. Students in Science Research II will be in class with Science Research I students, but will be expected to be more self-sufficient in all aspects of research (for example, designing experiments, collecting data, analyzing results, and writing scientific literature). Students are also expected to provide leadership for a small group of Science Research I students, being a “project leader” for an experiment.
