This years' Genetic society/BBSRC funded RAP summer projects are live for application again! there are in total 49 projects, please spread the words for any #undergraduate who are interested in #genetics research, plus we have 7 exciting #Drosophila based project (including myself see code RAP29 in the application portal ). Please see more details here:

This can be a great strategy to retool for your future--especially if you live in a state like New Mexico that takes educating a large proportion of #FirstGen college attendees as a serious priority, with in-state tuition almost A THIRD OF this article's stated average--which can often be reduced TO ZERO through state grants & financial assistance specifically aimed at helping these populations.

At these states' flagship institutions--like The University of New Mexico--the realities the article mentions of juggling work ,school, and home life are mitigated through widespread availability of classes online--but still taught by the same faculty you'd have on campus--and timed to fit your schedule. And through a campus culture and a faculty that honors the struggles you make, to make a better future.

Whether you're a new aspiring #undergraduate or an experienced professional with ANY technical degree contemplating a return to #GradSchool--like countless Soldiers I've mentored in the four decades since my OWN military career began--accredited programs like UNM Organization, Information & Learning Sciences (OILS), with degree & certificates from the bachelors to the Ph.D., can equip you with the evidence-based tools & methods at the intersection of recruiting, training, HR, and analytics, to design, lead, and evaluate the workforce readiness programs for your current organization, or charting an entirely new path.

What are you waiting for...?

Alongside coordinating and lecturing in Intermediate Logic this semester, I have the fun task of teaching one of the tutorial groups, together with our enthusiastic and capable graduate student tutors. My Tuesday morning cohort is a microcosm of the student body at St Andrews.

Of the 13 students, we have two each from England, China, and the USA, and we have one each from Botswana, Denmark, France, Greece, Hong Kong, Scotland and Spain. That’s a diverse bunch.

In addition, six of the 13 are Philosophy majors, six are Mathematics majors, five major in International Relations, and we have one each from French, Computer Science and Psychology. (I haven’t miscounted: some of our students complete double majors.)

Finally, this cohort consists of eight women and five men.

I’m looking forward to spending time with these students through the semester.

The common learning modes of #EE and #CS #undergraduate #students I have taught or mentored:

• The one who cannot master any concept, and soon drops out of the programme, after the first semester—this type often ends up switching into Econ or Bio
• The one who chooses to learn only those concepts he deems are of immediate value to him—this type inevitably becomes an #IT practitioner
• The one who learns everything with alacrity, but never bothering to investigate the deeper meaning thereof—this type almost always gets an MBA and becomes an IT executive
• The one who learns deeply everything on the curriculum, then pursues connected or related concepts that are beyond the curriculum—this type usually pursues a PhD and often becomes an academic researcher and, less often, a patentee or a tech company founder
