[quote=Anonymous]The advice re SLACs providing excellent undergrad research opportunities is spot on. Faculty at research universities look first to grad students and then fill out labs with undergrads, who get the less desirable assignments and who are supervised by the grad students -- not by profs. Some east-of-the-Mississippi SLACs to look at: Oberlin -- tons of NSF money there supporting research Wesleyan -- ditto Haverford Wellesley (women only, of course) Also, for kids willing to light out for the territories west of the Mississippi, Rice offers great opportunities. Yes, there are grad students there, but the undergrads outnumber them. Profs really encourage undergrads to take part in research and there's a lot of interesting work going on in many STEM fields.
