Students may perform a research project at an off-campus facility such as another univeristy, an industry site or a national laboratory. Forty hours of research experience are expected to be completed for each semester-credit granted. Thus, 120 hours of research work must be performed in order to earn three credits. During the semester in which the student returns to campus, he or she will be evaluated based on faculty conversations with the student's field supervisor. The student will also be expected to write a paper, and to undertake one of the following: present a seminar on the research findings, create a poster display, or create a computer web site on the research. This course can only be taken with prior faculty approval.
