Transcript excerpt

I went to grad school and got my master's in biology at 23. So all I did was basically reach out to professors that was doing research that I was interested in. So I did research in the Everglades, and my research was focused on fluffling organic matter. So what I did was find a professor that specialized in that at a university tier just reach out to them and ask them if they had funding to take me on. Now within the email, what you wanna do is basically just introduce worse, cite two papers by the professor. Professors professors love when you read their paper. And once you cite your papers, make sure it's relevant to the research that you wanna do. And then expand upon that paper about why you wanna do the research and what type of research you wanna do. Now once you do that, attach your resume to the email as well, and just wait rank honor response from the professor. Now it's either they have fun in or they don't. Now this is specifically for your PhD or your master's degree. Yeah. That's basically it. The professor is gonna take you on and then basically waive your tuition, and you're gonna get paid to go to school and do research.
