Below is a list of all blog posts from the People Places Pines blog by Dartmouth College.
A lot of people are curious about how Dartmouth's location affects social life, but something else that I've come to realize is that because of Dartmouth's location, we have some really cool academic perks.
This week I wanted to share a brief little story about a class I am taking this term on carbon sequestration and how it made me feel more connected during this time.
How can I do research on the social sciences?
As an economics major, I've had so many chances to do research at Dartmouth!
What is an independent study? Good question! It wasn't until fellow blogger, Catherine, and I took "Cultural Analytics" that the possibility of doing an independent study came to life.
Can I conduct my own research as an undergrad in my field of choice (even if it's not STEM related)?
Definitely! There are a ton of opportunities to get involved with research even in non-STEM fields. One popular program to secure a research position and funding is through the Sophomore and Junior Research Scholars program.
I participated as a Women in Science Program (WISP) intern, presenting a poster entitled “Visualizing machine learning models for predicting readmission after an acute myocardial infarction”.
Professor Jacobi, one of my favorite professors at Dartmouth, is retiring this year, after 44 years of teaching (22 of which were at Dartmouth!).
Here at Dartmouth, students have access to the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center (DHMC), a state-of-the-art hospital and medical facility located a fifteen-minute bus ride away from campus.
Since the winter term, I have been involved with many programs at the Tuck School of Business, such as TuckLab, Tuck Incubators, and Tuck professors’ research projects.
