Undergraduate Research-You should begin by e-mailing any faculty member who is researching in your area of interest. The e-mail should introduce yourself, why you want to do research and a reminder if you have been in class with them before. Follow up with them if you do not get a response within 2 weeks. Faculty have many deadlines not related to teaching, but they will respond when they can. Once you have found a faculty mentor, you must complete an enrollment form to enroll in Biol 499 or Biol 669. Spaces fill quickly, so start the process as early as you can. Posters about faculty research are located in the hallway near the offices.
Scholarships-Department and LAS-Applications are normally available in November and are due by February of the following year. Awards are made in early April. Also look here for other awards that may be available.
General Education-courses required for all students to complete a degree (different colleges may have specific required courses that also fulfill general education—see an advisor for assistance).
Premedical-Interested in attending dental, medical, optometry, pharmacy, or veterinary school? Premedical advisors are in LAS Advising.
Health Professions-Advisors in health professions can provide information on bachelor's, master's and PhD programs at WSU.
