Summer research intern

June - August 2019 • Nashville, TN

What I liked

This was an amazing experience and an amazing program to work for. They were incredibly organized, caring, and the perfect amount of rigorous to challenge you into having a productive and educational summer. I was paired with an amazing faculty research mentor and graduate student research mentor, and given a project to develop, work on, and present, all while learning new theory, lab skills, research methods, and writing and presentation skills.

What I wish was different

Advice

This program is not for the faint of heart, and should be taken up only if you have a serious drive to attend graduate school, because it essentially felt like a summer of graduate school.
