Undergraduate opportunities

imageI welcome undergraduates to participate in our research program. I believe that research experience is necessary to make choices about a career in biology and to be competitive for graduate school. I do not assume that students have prior experience, but I do require that they be highly motivated, focused, and willing to learn during their tenure with us. Each year, I have 1–3 undergraduate students working on projects in my laboratory. They may be funded by MU summer fellowships, extramural grants, or may just want to volunteer time.

If you are interested in becoming involved in research during the summer or regular semester, please contact me by e-mail (SemlitschR@missouri.edu) to set an appointment to talk. Also, check out our past undergraduates.
