Getting In

Meer over het boek

"An empowering guide for students in STEMM that demystifies the process of securing undergraduate research experiences. Conducting research is an important foundation for many undergraduates on STEMM career paths. But landing an extremely competitive research spot that is also an enriching experience involves an awareness of how to present yourself effectively and of your goals and expectations. In this book, an expert lab manager and a longtime principal investigator provide not only an overview of STEMM research and lab opportunities but also specific strategies for the entire application process so students-- especially those from communities historically underrepresented in science-- can understand the hidden curriculum and claim their place in research settings. With its emphasis on the many interpersonal and professional benefits of research experiences, Getting In equips all STEMM undergrads with the tools they need both to secure these valued positions and to develop habits that will build productive relationships with their future research mentors." --
