Research
The Social Behavioral Sciences Department provides undergraduate students with several ways to gain research experience, both on- and off-campus. We encourage all students to get involved in research projects, especially those interested in pursuing graduate and doctoral studies.
Research projects can lead to participation in conference presentations or journal publications. A conference presentation involves constructing and presenting a poster about a study. Students must complete at least one semester of work to give a poster presentation. Journal article publications require much more effort. At least two consecutive semesters of work, usually much more, are needed before a student can serve as an author. So it is always a good idea to get involved with research as early as possible and stick with it as long as possible.
