This Is More of A Level Up in School/Career, but....


sneaky

Recommended Posts

I am a freshman in college majoring in microbiology, and hoping to pursue a career in a lab environment. I've applied and been rejected from more labs than I want to think about. Everyone I talked to told me to be patient and wait, that I was only a freshman and labs want juniors and seniors who are already more knowledgable. Well guess who has a position in one of their professors' labs? If you said sneaky, than you would be correct. I am so f'ing excited!!!!

Thanks :) I meet with him on Thursday to discuss when I start and what I'd be doing (heck I'll be happy to be a glorified cleaning lady labeled as a lab tech as long as I get to see what they work on).

while at college I always hated microbiology labs the most - I was always more of theory fan, not practice in labs - but then I did my Master Thesis under our coolest profesor who teached ... microbiology :) so life can be weird sometimes.

 

Anyways, congrats on getting the position and have fun :)

Thank you :) I'm using micro as a kind of stepping stone to later get into parasitology, virology, or epidemiology (haven't completely decided which yet, but so far I'm leaning toward parasites) since there aren't majors for those specifically, I have to wait until grad school to really get in depth with one.
