[Biopsych-u-l] Eckstein Lab 199 opp

[Catherine McConney]

Lab:    Dr. Miguel Eckstein
      Room: Psych 1528
http://www.uweb.ucsb.edu/~wades/199/

Project: Variable

Description: Work with graduate and postgraduate researchers on projects 
involving visual search, eye movements, and attention. Most work will 
involve helping out with specific experiments (being a subject or 
helping run). Independent/individual research opportunities are possible 
for those with well thought-out proposals, determination and diligence, 
pending lab approval.

Duties: We are looking mainly for students interested in working for 4 
units this quarter. 2 and 3 unit exceptions are possible. However, all 
prospective researchers are expected to be able to come into the lab for 
some amount of time every day. We require 0.5 hours/day/unit, so a 4 
unit person will attend the lab for 10 hours a week, though not 
necessarily for 2 hours every day (but something close to that).

Additional Requirements: There will be three or four one-hour classes 
held during the quarter on topics relevant to our research. Attendance 
is mandatory. Concurrent with these classes, the students will read two 
or three assigned journal articles. Also, a brief (5-7 page) paper 
summarizing one of the assigned articles is due at the end of the 
quarter. This is not meant to be a time-consuming or difficult endeavor.

Additional Information: In order to receive a letter of recommendation, 
we usually insist on students working for two or more quarters in the lab.
