Dear Students,
I need some help with a research project right away (a study of people’s reactions to criminal cases of animal abuse). Please email your responses to the questions in the form below to me at bbottoms@uic.edu (copy and paste form into an email) if you’re interested in working in my laboratory with my team for the next couple weeks. The work will start right away, and we’d expect 6 to 8 hours per week. I can’t promise that we will have anything for you to work on after a few weeks, but this experience would at least give you a taste of what research is like. If you work a total of 40 hours, you’ll be eligible to receive one credit of PSCH 396 credit next fall. (This is not a paid position.)
If you are interested, complete the form below and email it to me now. I plan to conduct interviews next Tuesday (June 20) starting at 10:00 am. So, please let me know if you are interested right away, and let me know what times you would be able to make an interview next Tuesday (or if you could make an interview the following day, Wednesday, June 21).
Thanks!
Professor Bottoms
