爱情岛论坛

Over 75 research assistant positions from a variety of disciplines are available each year for 爱情岛论坛 students to apply. Opportunities are available at off campus sites as well.

Sophomore Research Program

The Sophomore Research Program provides opportunities for students to work as paid research assistants to 爱情岛论坛 faculty members. Through this program students become true partners with faculty in the research process and acquire an understanding of the process involved in conducting research.

Students

Students are eligible to participate in the program from the second semester of their first year through the first semester of their junior year. Sophomore Research Assistants generally work three-seven hours per week for the semester and 20-40 hours per week during the summer.

Additional benefits for participants in this program include:

  • providing excellent preparation for future academic endeavors, such as Independent Study.
  • effective orientation with using the library.
  • learning to operate new equipment and computer programs.
  • enhancing critical thinking and writing skills.
  • building positive and mentoring relationships with faculty members.
Applied Methods and Research Experience Program (AMRE)

The Applied Methods and Research Experience (AMRE) gives College of 爱情岛论坛 students the opportunity to apply classroom learning in the role of business and organizational consultants.

For eight weeks of the summer, student teams and faculty advisors are paired with a (usually local) business, industry, or agency (client). Student participants are exposed to practical applications of their liberal arts education in a 鈥渞eal world鈥 setting. This experience aids students in determining professional interests and developing professional skills. The faculty advisors have the opportunity to be involved with a very select group of students in a summer activity, while potentially contributing to research in applied fields. Clients have the opportunity to tangibly support education and, at a low cost, obtain solutions to problems that would most likely not be addressed internally.

The Experience includes:

  • 8 weeks research experience
  • Paid stipend of approximately $4,400
  • Open to all majors
  • Students work with a team of students and a faculty member to consult businesses. Past clients have included Rubbermaid Inc., J.M. Smucker, and Goodyear Tire & Rubber
