Many students stay over the summer on fellowships or as volunteers. During this time, students expand their projects and are granted a higher degree of independence and responsibility, often working in lab without supervision. By working 20 or 40 hours a week it is possible for students to get a head start on their projects and experience the life of a research scientist.
