To gain a greater understanding of the scientific method and acquire new knowledge through a mentored research experience, you may receive elective credit for up to eight weeks of research time. This may be augmented with an additional one-month rotation in a subspecialty rotation related to your area of research. It is anticipated that most research projects will take place over the course of several months to two years, with protected elective time allocated for periods of intensive work such as background literature reviews, data collection, or data analysis.
