What I was expecting when I signed for research was a mix between hands-on work and computer work. What its been so far is more computer work than hands on. Even though that is kind of a disappointment the people I am working with make up for that. Teamwork really is an important part of this project.
I shouldn't be surprised about the amount of research and reading we are doing since this is....*ahem*...research.
The positive thing about the research environment is the people you work with and the opportunities that arise while doing research. For example, we got to help with orientation and be role models when it came to advertising various programs the school offers. The only negative thing I experience is the silence. It becomes deafening sometimes but it allows clear thinking.
Anyway the research is going good. Here's hoping for a good summer experience!
