DISCOVER 
Research happens in all disciplines at USC!

While all disciplines have methodologies and techniques unique to the field, there are basic skills and abilities shared by many disciplines that will make you a valuable research assistant, when you are ready to embark on a research project.

The DISCOVER program is a 8-week not-for-credit seminar open to first-year students in any major. This program will help you gain some of these basic research skills and techniques (including helping you find a faculty member to work with) but you will not conduct a research project.

DISCOVER meets once per week for one hour. In Fall 2008, two different sections will be offered. One will meet on Tuesdays 4:00-5:00pm beginning September 16th. The second section will meet Wednesdays 4:00-5:00pm beginning September 17th.
 

You will learn how to	• Apply for a Magellan Award • Create surveys • Write research and field notes • Network with faculty and peers • Develop effective poster presentations • And more
