+ | There are several different ways to get involved as a graduate student. | ||
+ | The preferable way to get started is to spend a semester or summer in the lab completing an independent study (CISC 868 Research) course for 3 credits. Depending on how the semester project goes, you could get more deeply | ||

+ | There are often possibilities to be funded as a research assistant on different projects in the lab. | ||
+ | The faculty research investigators use several criteria for selecting research assistants: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * strong performance in graduate courses related to the research area | ||
+ | * demonstrated independent problem solver in independent study or course by the faculty investigator | ||
+ | * strong work ethic | ||
