Other Opportunities for Science Students
Science internships and field study programs may have a research component or focus. Please see their descriptions under Science Internships and Field Studies.
Individual departments and researchers offer many other research opportunities. These may be paid or unpaid, for academic credit or not for credit. Some of these opportunities are formal programs and are described in other sections of this publication (Research Project Courses, "396" Undergraduate Research Project Courses, and Undergraduate Student Research Awards) or on the Office for Undergraduate Research in Science website (www.mcgill.ca/science/research/undergraduate-research); however, many opportunities arise as a result of students talking with their professors. For advice on approaching professors, and more generally on how to get involved in research, see www.mcgill.ca/science/research/undergraduate-research/finding-opportunities.
In addition to opportunities available at 91社区, there are several external opportunities at other institutions. You may also want to look for additional opportunities funded or offered by external foundations or institutions, research agencies, other academic institutions, or scholarly societies: for example, a provincial cancer research society, the science funding agency of another country which you wish to visit or where you hold citizenship, research hospitals or universities in another city, or an international psychological association.
