My Dream Job

I’d love to work in research but beyond that, I am still figuring things out.

What do you hope to learn from your Richter experience this summer?

I want to learn about how research gets done in a lab and in the field. I expect to utilize these skills in my future research projects, classes, and post-college employment. I’ve never done field work before and want to see if that’s something I could do in the future.
