Master's students are expected to go through a lab rotation their first fall semester. The objective of this course is to help students in identifying their future research advisor by exposing them to different research areas. Master's students are expected to complete 3 rotations their first semester (5 weeks per rotation). The nature of the rotation may vary from one (1) lab to another depending on the advisor; thus some rotations can be research focused and others can involve more literature and background work.
