[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Paid undergrad research is going to expect a lot of low level busy work to justify the expense. On the other hand, unpaid research is going to be more productive for an undergrad to have a higher level role in a research project since they are volunteering their time. They can skip the low level busy work. Finding a good faculty mentor who is willing to work with undergrads, and actually help them, is the hardest part.[/quote] Paid summer research for undergrads is never going to actually be a good opportunity. As the lowest level paid employee in the lab, they do the most basic tasks for hire. Skip the idea of paid summer research. Trust me. Do unpaid research and actually be able to focus on higher level work, if you want to do research.[/quote]
