Research Opportunities for Students
Last Updated 03/31/04
This page has five categories:
Research
and Internship Opportunities Administered by
the Department:
Independent Study
Independent study involves a student conducting a research project under the
supervision of a professor in the Department. In order to become involved in
independent study, it is the responsibility of the student to contact a
professor and ask to do work with that professor. It is recommended that a
student contact several professors to see what range of projects may be
available to study. One also may wish to talk to students currently doing
independent study to learn more about working with each faculty member. Each
spring the Department hosts a research poster session. This is an excellent time
to learn about the full range of opportunities. Typically, students begin
independent study work in their junior or senior year and pursue a two-semester
experience.

Bristol-Myers Squibb
Research Opportunity Program
The Department nominates students who are seeking a high-level research
experience to participate in laboratories at Bristol-Myers Squibb. These are
opportunities to participate as Research Scientist Trainees at BMS. The
successful candidate will work for three semesters or one summer and one
semester (nine hours credit toward bio options) in a state of the art research
laboratory. This will give the student training in modern biological techniques.
The applicant must be at least a Junior (at the time he/she begins research),
have completed Cell and Molecular Biology (and, hopefully other Molecular
Biological courses), have a minimum 3.0 GPA in his/her science courses, provide
at least one letter of recommendation from a Biology faculty member who taught
the applicant in a 200 level or above lecture/laboratory course, and fill out
the application (obtainable from the Biology department secretaries) by the
deadline. The applicant should also speak with Dr. Klug. Students register for this experience in Biol
499--Independent
Study in Biology and receive no stipend or salary.

Internship Opportunities
A number of corporations, government agencies, and hospitals offer training
programs offering experience in research labs or other professional settings.
In most cases, students must contact the individual companies to learn about the
programs and to apply to them. The Office of Career Services maintains a
list of some internship opportunities. From time to time,
corporations contact the Department directly, requesting that we nominate
students for their internship (see, for example, the BMS program above).
Students interested in being contacted when these internship programs are
available should contact Dr. Klug.
Internships may be paid or unpaid. Most positions are found as summer employment, but some students have participated in internships during the academic year. Please be aware that some, but not all, internship opportunities may qualify for academic credit (see details below). Contact Dr. Klug for clarification.
Getting
TCNJ credit for research and internship
experiences:
Independent Study (Biol 499) is organized by Dr. Lipton; Honors
Independent Study (Biol 476, 477) is organized by Dr. Fangboner. These
courses involve research under the direction of a faculty member and can be
taken for 1 to 6 credits per semester. Typically, the courses are pursued
by students with Junior or Senior status for 3 credits/semester. A
two-semester project is recommended for each of the above.
Click here for a complete list of Requirements
and Expectations for Students Enrolled in Independent Study.
Biology Internship (Biol 397) is organized and administered by Dr. Klug. Internship involves application of intellectual and laboratory research skills acquired in previous course work to an investigation project at a site off campus (such as local research companies, universities, research centers and field stations). Emphasis is on an efficiently-conducted research project as well as effective oral and written communication skills. The course typically is taken for 3 or 6 credits per semester. Internships may be paid or unpaid. Most positions are found as summer employment, but enrollment may occur during either the fall or spring semester, too. Undergraduate summer research programs at colleges and universities throughout the country qualify for internship credit. Those students who wish to be considered for positions should contact Dr. Klug, who will be happy to answer questions about this program.
Transfer Credit. Students who participate in undergraduate summer research programs at other colleges, universities, or research centers may be able to obtain independent study credit through the sponsoring institution. See Undergraduate Bulletin for details concerning transfer credit at TCNJ.

Lists of Research Opportunities for Undergraduate Students
(Brochures on most programs are available in the
Biology office.)
LionsPro at the TCNJ Office of Career Services:
The TCNJ Office of Career Services provides access to LionsPro, an on-line
data base service for internship opportunties. Students who are
seeking internship opportunities may register with LionsPro (a division of
MonsterTrak). Students enter their resumes and when requests for interns
is received by Career Services, the students will receive an e-mail that advises
them that an internship for which they are eligible has been posted.
Students then log on to LionsPro and review the information about the
internship. In order to register, students should contact the TCNJ Career
Services (x 2161). In order to become activated, a student must attend an
"Introduction to Internships" workshop. A student need attend a
workshop only once, so students should consider enrolling in a workshop early in
their undergraduate career. These workshops are offered at various times
during the academic year. For specific dates of these workshops, visit the
Career Services web page.
The following three entries
are websites with links to research/internship opportunities:
NSF-REU (National Science Foundation, Research Experiences for
Undergraduates)
The REU program provides money to recipients of NSF grants to allow them to
involve undergraduates in their research. Site awards are funded through the
Directorate for Biological Sciences and the Directorate for Ocean Sciences. Many
of these programs are not funded until the spring. However, most sites are
funded for three-year periods, so a program for one year often has continued
funding for the next year. The list at this link is updated as new programs are
funded.
The REU programs listed on the website are for 2003. Most of the programs from the summer of
2003 will be
funded for the summer of 2004. Students are encouraged to contact each
program directly for updated application information.
Deadline: Varies between February and April
