This is an excellent opportunity to participate in cutting-edge research as part of a team with faculty, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows. Many undergraduates publish and present papers and receive research grants. Classes, especially in upper-level courses, have only 10-20 students for optimum participation. The atmosphere also is very informal, so that it is easy for students and faculty to know each other well. Our record for placing students in top graduate programs is exceptionally strong; many have pursued Ph.D. programs at some of the country’s top universities. A number of degrees are offered to accommodate various interests and proficiency levels.
