What qualifications should we have before pursuing a research position

# data[].attributes.body
As a senior can I still be involved or is research like a long term commitment?

# data[].attributes.body
When a professor asks if you want to see a jar full of exotic parasitic mites, your answer should be yes. Then go from there :)

# data[].attributes.body
Connections are probably the best way to get involved

# data[].attributes.body
Look up the staff directory at UC and see what their research interests are. Email them and see if they could use any help

# data[].attributes.body
Inquiring about any opportunities you come across

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of my professors encouraged students to reach out for research opportunities

# data[].attributes.body
Don’t confine your options to just UC - I had an internship in a histology lab over the summer :-)

# data[].attributes.body
I plan on going to one of the small group consultations now that I know about them

# data[].attributes.body
Through connections and talking to your professors

# data[].attributes.body
Go to you, email professors

# data[].attributes.body
Reaching out to professors

# data[].attributes.body
The only way I know is finding internships or reaching out to professors

# data[].attributes.body
Asking a professor about their work

# data[].attributes.body
Emailing a professor

# data[].attributes.body
cold emails, send with your resume, pay attention to the canvas page for your major

# data[].attributes.body
Connecting with professors

# data[].attributes.body
Search up research professors and cold email.

# data[].attributes.body
Reach out to their professors

I think research is interesting but I have no research ideas or drive to think of anythi, so I'm not sure

# data[].attributes.body
probably not, i've never really liked working in a lab so unless the research is field oriented it won't really interest me

# data[].attributes.body
yes for experience for graduate school and it’s just a good opportunity

# data[].attributes.body
Yes if I am passionate about the research

# data[].attributes.body
Yes because I think it will help me understand what I do and don’t enjoy

# data[].attributes.body
I just got invited to do research today, but it's not through UC. So the answer is yes, just in a different way.

# data[].attributes.body
Yes absolutely, especially as I want to pursue grad school

# data[].attributes.headline
After hearing some experiences, I think it would be good for me to start being more involved and make connections while learning useful skills

# data[].attributes.body
Most definitely, always held an interest for research

# data[].attributes.body
Yes. I feel I have to in order to one day have a well paying job.

# data[].attributes.body
i’m currently in two labs and its good for experience but it seems like it would be a very intense job to have for the rest of my life

# data[].attributes.body
Not for a career because the work seems very competitive and the pay is low

# data[].attributes.body
Yes because I want to continue to learn more

# data[].attributes.body
I would like to but I only have one semester left so is that even a possibility? Covid kinda screwed my timeline up

# data[].attributes.body
Possibly for experience for grad school

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like it’s too daunting, I’m worried that I won’t like it if I try it, and I’m worried I’m not smart enough for it.

# data[].attributes.body
yes! I would love to learn more and get involved

# data[].attributes.body
Definitely yes, I want to do that to gain more experience and make connections

# data[].attributes.body
Yes. In grad school and then hopefully for a career. It’s real science and it keeps the job interesting

# data[].attributes.body
Yeah I want to be able to explore that side of environmental science before pursuing a set path

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, I enjoy being at the forefront of discovery and trying new, creative things

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, I want experience for grad school. I may pursue a PhD

# data[].attributes.body
Yes that has always been my goal:)

# data[].attributes.body
Yes, it is a great opportunity to gain experience

# data[].attributes.body
Absolutely

# data[].attributes.body
Yes for experience

# data[].attributes.body
I would do grad school but pay is low, so that is daunting

# data[].attributes.body
Ok I have not found it easy to get into a lab lol

# data[].attributes.body
Heavy workload, lots of data, research papers involved.

# data[].attributes.body
A long term position to investigate issues you are passionate about

# data[].attributes.headline
It feels daunting but could be very good and fun experience 

# data[].attributes.subject
It feels daunting but could be very good and fun experience 

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of work but valuable experience

# data[].attributes.body
It’s fairly easy to get involved. Professors are pretty opened to find you a lab that works for your needs

# data[].attributes.body
Many of my professors offer research opportunities and encourage us to reach out to them

# data[].attributes.body
Getting to collaborate with others to solve problems

# data[].attributes.body
Research experience makes your grad school application more competitive. connections with professors helps with recommendation letters

# data[].attributes.body
Research is too time consuming for students that might work to support themselves.

# data[].attributes.body
I feel like you have to do heavy writing for projects.

# data[].attributes.body
don’t know how to get involved in what I would like to

# data[].attributes.body
Can be incredibly, INCREDIBLY specific in what they're researching

# data[].attributes.body
research is something everyone is saying to get involved in, but it seems like standing around in a lab for hours and not a whole lot of field work

# data[].attributes.body
gain experience and make connections with professors

# data[].attributes.body
To me research makes me think of working in a lab. It makes me think of the work my order brother used to do that was very complicated and slightly stressful.

# data[].attributes.body
most of the grunt work

# data[].attributes.headline
Very intimidating but also very interesting

# data[].attributes.subject
Very intimidating but also very interesting

# data[].attributes.body
It’s a good opportunity to gain experience in the field of your interest

# data[].attributes.body
Research in my mind is working in a lab doing the same thing over and over. It sounds sort of hard.

# data[].attributes.body
A lot of data collection

# data[].attributes.body
It’s a little intimidating and I don’t know very much about it

# data[].attributes.body
Something I want to know more about with specific opportunities towards my major at UC

# data[].attributes.body
Working in a professors lab , unpaid getting experience
