To receive credit, you must first contact a specific faculty member and arrange to perform research with them. Then, you must register for the appropriate research course.<\/p>\n<p>For undergraduates, if you plan to fulfill your capstone experience requirement by completing a research thesis, and\/or are seeking honors in biology, you should take Guided Research (BIO 498) followed by Guided Research: Capstone Experience (BIO 499). If you are looking to get research experience and are unsure of whether you will continue, you can begin with Guided Research in Biology (BIO 497) and have the option to continue in your research either with BIO 498 (thesis not required) or with BIO 499 (thesis required). Note that by taking these courses, you are required to present your research at the end of each semester in the Biology Department Undergraduate Research Seminars.<\/p>\n<p>For graduate students, if you are planning for or are in the thesis track, you should take a pre-thesis course (BIO 790 or 791 or 792 or 793), followed by two semesters of thesis research (BIO 798 and BIO 799). If you are planning for or are in the non-thesis track, you can still do research on a voluntary basis (subject to the approval of the faculty member who will guide you) or for credit (BIO 790 or 791).
