Austin College On-Campus Employment

Summer Research Intern

May 2019 • Sherman, TX

What I liked

The model organism we used for research was Thirteen-Lined Ground Squirrels. I learned so much from this experience. The PI helped educate us on experimental design practices, ecology information, and evaluating scientific literature.

What I wish was different

Everything was wonderful. We did camp outside a lot but that comes with the territory of field research.

Advice

Go in with an open mind and willing to work and put forth the effort. A bad attitude could've turned this amazing experience into a burned opportunity.
