澳门老奇人论坛鈥檚 Research Rookies Program provides research experiences to select
high-achieving incoming first year and transfer students to 澳门老奇人论坛. Selected
students will take a 3 credit hour class in the fall to develop career skills employers
want and be paired with a faculty mentor after exploring their options in research
and creative works. Students in the program have the opportunity to work alongside
their faculty mentor on average for 5 hours a week throughout the next three semesters,
thereby maximizing opportunities for research-based engagement and learning. Funding
of $4,000 ($1,000 for each of four semesters) will be provided to each Highlander
Research Rookie based on active participation in activities associated with Research
Rookies.
"The Highlander Research Rookie Program helped put together my future. I now have
connections at the university, research skills, and a great program to put on my resume."
