Hey everyone. I was wondering if anyone here could help me please?
I've been struggling for several months now trying to find an opportunity to do research with a professor.
I've sent emails to several professors. In the email I would ask directly if they had any positions available for undergrads. I have not gotten a single response yet.
I went directly to a professor's office once, only to receive a VERY rude "NO!" Need I say that it scared me from going to another professor's office?
Now I am thinking that it may just have been a rude professor. Since I am getting no responses to my emails, can I just go into their office and ask them? Isn't it kind of rude? I do not know these professor's office hours because on their website they have office hours for Spring 2009.
Anyway, does anyone have any suggestions? I am going to be a senior next year and I don't exactly have a lot of time left to do research. I want to get into Master's program but they all want research experience of course. :(
