Requirements include participation in field work, detailed field notes, readings, a research presentation for the <a href=\"https:\/\/researchweek.ucf.edu\/symposium\/\">Student Scholar Symposium <\/a>at the <a href=\"https:\/\/showcase.ucf.edu\/\">Showcase of Undergraduate Research<\/a>, and a research paper. There may be other written assignments, but there will be no exams. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fieldwork is conducted on CCSFS in rugged conditions. You&#8217;ll need sunscreen, bug spray, light clothing, and a willingness to work in dense vegetation and wetlands with a great attitude.
