Reviews

Geology Research Assistant

June 2023 Hamilton, NY
“I really liked how I got to experience hands-on work in a lab and got to discover my likes and dislikes. I liked that I got to learn and dip my foot into various things: basic wet lab skills, diatom taxonomy, how to use a light microscope and scanning electron microscope, and software like Ocean Data View and Adobe Illustrator. Additionally, I got the opportunity to see what it was like in that specific field of geology and if I would want to continue pursuing it in the future.”
