Advice for getting started
Watch VideosOkay, so my tricks on how to become a research assistant, really all you need to do is just go talk to your professor that has told you what they're researching in. If you have decided your major, if you are feeling confident that that's what you want to kind of go into, just find the professor that is like that is researching that topic and they would love to have you on as a research assistant. You just ask if you can learn more about their research and learn more about how to get on their team and you know honestly one of my biggest fears is of professors like I think that they all are like way better than me but when I overcame that and I talked to my professor about becoming a research assistant she was more than willing to get me started, get me set up and now I've been a research assistant for a year and a half and it's been honestly such a great experience for me. So just go ahead, just build up that confidence and go ask your professors.
