Besides coursework, there are opportunities to experience research
activities. Research by the student provides a chance to present a paper at a
state meeting and have abstracts and other works published with such
organizations as the SD Academy of Science. These are opportunities that assist
students as they seek acceptance into graduate programs.
Other opportunities include membership in Tri Beta National Biological Honors
Society and National Science Foundation. Some chemistry majors join Lambda Delta
Lambda, a national honor society for the physical sciences. They participate in
the health fair, scientific meetings, various service projects each year, and
social events. |
