Q: If I am already in a research group, do I need to complete this form?
A: No. You will arrange enrollment in CHE 393/493 with your current research advisor.
Q: If I am selected for CHE 393/493, how do I enroll?
A: You will work with your advisor to submit an independent research enrollment form.
Q: Do I actually need to meet with faculty before applying?
A: Yes. You are highly unlikely to be selected by faculty if you do not meet with them first.
Q: What do I talk about when meeting with research faculty?
A: You will discuss, among other things, your goals and scientific interests, what you would work on in the lab, and expectations.
Q: How do I apply for the Mentored Undergraduate Summer Experience (MUSE) program?
A: You need to arrange a meeting to discuss MUSE with one or more faculty members of interest. Some faculty will indicate on the "Faculty Info" page if they are seeking students for MUSE. You do not apply to MUSE through the CHE 393/493 application form.
Q: What if I still don't know what to ask faculty?
A: Review the document linked below.
Q: What if my question is not addressed here?
A: Direct your question to Prof. Ekanger (ekangerl@tcnj.edu).
