SURG 701A Surgery Research

Credits: 2 to 12
Students will participate in research (arrangement made by student) within the department of surgery. At the completion of the rotation, the student should turn in a summary of the research performed (2-4 pages) which includes background of the process you are studying and the question you are trying to answer, methods (including statistical analysis), results, and a description of your actual research experience. Using preliminary data to write an abstract is encouraged. Students should also include a plan for eventual submission and presentation of your work. Students must fill out a form and have approval from the surgical faculty mentor, the surgery department and the dean’s office prior to signing up. Please contact the surgery coordinator for the requirements for this course.
