I. Graduate Research
Potential MS or PhD students
must access the Department of
Kinesiology and Community Health website to find out more
about graduate admission requirements. Please contact
Tina Candler in the
Department of Kinesiology and Community Health if you have
specific questions regarding admission requirements. If you are
interested in learning more about graduate research
opportunities in the MMP Laboratory, please contact Prof. Marni
Boppart.
II.
Undergraduate Research
Undergraduates are welcome upon
invitation to complete independent research projects in the
laboratory as KIN 385 or MCB 290 credit. Talented students can
also participate in the laboratory as part of the
campus-sponsored Howard Hughes Undergraduate Fellowship Program.
Most students begin at the end of their sophomore or beginning
of their junior year and register for 3 credit hours (=9 hours
of lab/week). Requirements to begin independent research include
completion of KIN 150 or MCB 252/253, high GPA, good work ethic,
enthusiasm, and/or permission from Prof. Marni Boppart.
Most students spend the first
semester learning cellular and molecular biology techniques in
the laboratory. Once mastered, students are able to begin their
own research project. If you are interested in learning more
about undergraduate research opportunities in the MMP
Laboratory, please contact Prof. Marni Boppart.
