CHE 4985 - Research/Laboratory Internship II: T3 Mentor

Credits: 1-2

Prerequisite(s): CHE 4977 AND CHE 4979 AND CHE 4983

Corequisite(s): CHE 4978 AND CHE 4984 OR CHE 4997 (the latter two courses are co-requisite with the second repetition of the course in the ACS-BP or ING-BP, respectively)

Description: During the Research/Laboratory Internship II course, students continue their full-time research/laboratory work as part of the Immersive Research/Laboratory Internship portion of the ACS-BP and ING-BP programs. For this work, students gain invaluable experience in the laboratories of their Tier 3 mentors performing hands-on experiments and procedures that are relevant to the student’s specific research/laboratory projects and future goals.

Note:

Students must be participating in the American Chemical Society Post-Baccalaureate Bridge Program (ACS-BP) and Chemical Industry, National, and Government Laboratory Post-Baccalaureate Bridge Program (ING-BP) to enroll in this course.
This course is repeatable, variable credit, and must be taken during both semesters of the second academic year in the ACS-BP or ING-BP programs.
1. ACS-BP: 2 credit hour course, repeatable twice for a maximum of 4 credits.
2. ING-BP: 1 credit hour course, repeatable twice for a maximum of 2 credits.
Since students are compensated as a part of these programs, work expectations are set beyond that determined by the credit hours of certain courses. Accordingly, students are expected to spend an average of 37 hrs per week performing tasks associated with this internship.
