Science Research at Wesleyan
If you're interested in doing something, if you're interested in going to a conference, if you're interested in doing experiments, if you're interested in joining a lab, just go out and ask and push for it. It takes a lot of courage, but you learn how to do it better as you go along.
Supporting student research across sciences and mathematics is one of the core missions of the CIS. The CIS seeks to help students find research mentors through the ongoing Research Frontiers Seminars (CIS 221/222), as well as special events that highlight research groups from across the sciences. Our flagship summer research program hosts more than 150 undergraduates every summer.
