<p>D1 specifically selected FSU due to the opportunity to perform significant research as an undergraduate student. She received funding, supervision, close interaction and mentoring from faculty and graduate students and earned a fellowship which enabled her to travel and present her work at a national academic group. Fantastic opportunity. Certainly helped with admission to med school.</p>
<p>(Also LOTS of work ;))</p>

"We ought to be doing everything we can to engage our undergraduate students in the research mission of the university," said Karen Laughlin, FSU's dean of Undergraduate Studies. "We now have a centralized office where we can serve that function in lots of different ways. We want to help students who are interested in research figure out how to go about getting engaged in a research project. We often work with the Office of National Fellowships and the University Honors Program to help students attain their goals."
