Major: Psychology (Experimental)
Future Plans: Graduate school for PhD in the sciences
As an experimental psychology major, I was very excited when I learned that my advisor, Dr. Sammut, would be opening a biopsychology animal research lab. The biopsychology lab offers psychology students, like myself, the opportunity to conduct research relevant to our field of study and to gain lab experience essential for anyone planning to go to graduate school. Working with Dr. Sammut has been an exceptional opportunity, as he allows his students to be directly involved in the planning and conducting of experiments as well as the day-to-day running of the lab. Dr. Sammut’s mentorship has been invaluable because it offers me a chance to work with a professor who is an expert in his field and brings many years of research experience to the lab.
