Hi! I was wondering where you could learn about research opportunities on campus. Are they competitive?
Dear Anonymous,
Joining any pre-health/science clubs will give you information on research opportunities. But the main research program at Berkeley is URAP, which is pretty competitive.. If this is your first research position, I would suggest trying URAP first since they'd be more open to new students. However, if you haven't discovered already, the application process can be somewhat tedious. So, an alternative to doing URAP is to contact researchers from various institutions and see if they have any positions open and if they're willing to let you work there as a volunteer to gain some experience.
Hope it works out! :)
