PI for Wesley College: Dr. Malcolm J. D’Souza, Professor of Chemistry

INBRE allows us to offer our Science students the option to do original directed research, working one-on-one with a faculty member during the school year for college credit, and as paid undergraduate research assistants. Participating students have presented their research outcomes at over 150 National, Regional, and Local Scientific Conferences.  Our students have earned 7 National Awards, and 21 are co-authors on peer-reviewed journal articles.  In addition, several paid internships are available each summer, not only at Wesley College, but also at the partner institutions, which enable students to work in full-time research laboratories using cutting-edge equipment and techniques.
To participate, contact Dr. Malcolm J. D’Souza; 302-736-2528.
