o.O in nus? my cousin's taking that, in ntu.
hmmm... engineering people dun have urops de meh?
anyway, urops for life science peeps, is like a lab module, except
that you have to approach a professor and ask him/her if he/she
will like to take u as a urops student. if yes, then you will be
doing part of his/her own field of research. a really small part.
then have to write a thesis-like lab report on your findings, and
give oral presentation or something liddat. then u will be
graded.
currently, i've approached a prof, and if nothing goes wrong, i
will be doing DNA sequencing of several selected primates,
particularly the genes suspected to be responsible for determining
brain size among and across the primates. and from there, hopefully
can do some phylogenetic studies on the linkage between primates
and humans and stuff liddat.
then if i like that kinda work, the prof say i might do a similar
one for my honours, on nycticebus (a lower primate). i wont go into
that, cos i think i'm boring you two.
