| The Science Center also enhances student-centered research and hands-on learning experience, which makes Guilford so unique among both small colleges and large universities. Every science student at Guilford is involved in hands-on, field study and nearly all seniors and juniors do their own original research. Also, students often present their findings at national conferences.
"At some schools, you might be doing a research project as an extension of your professor's research project, but with the theses that I've directed, almost all have been ideas that the students developed themselves. They're much more excited about it, much more involved in it, and they do a much better job with it. I'm just helping them, guiding them, and making suggestions." |
