    research projects. Concepts in data analysis and statistical design of experiments (e.g. MatLab, Python, JMP) are incorporated throughout the coursework. Electrochemical content is coupled with professional and communication skills development, as well as elective coursework focused on target career areas (materials science, bio-medicine, energy, etc.).  After 6 months of accelerated immersion coursework and a 9 month industry internship, graduates are ideal “T-shaped” employees that can tackle complex

  • Copyright law, current thinking and practice related to intellectual property rights, and even local computer use policies are constantly changing.

    Section 1. BACKGROUND Copyright law, current thinking and practice related to intellectual property rights, and even local computer use policies are constantly changing. Given this swirl of law, practice, and policy, engaging in scholarly or instructional activity while maintaining academic integrity and respecting the property of others can be quite a challenge, indeed. An exhaustive statement on copyright law is not possible here, so some general concepts and rules of thumb are presented

    resume is meant for you to list what experiences and skills you feel you currently possess. It is fine if your resume reflects an artist at the beginning of these experiences. Your letter and portfolio will be more important. What should I cover in my letter of intent? For your letter of intent, here are some ideas for topics you can cover: why you’re interested in attending PLU, why you love your art form(s)/medium, how you came to practice your medium, what drives you to make art, how you believe

  • In keeping with PLU’s access, recruitment, and retention goals, we must expand our understanding of “effectiveness” in assessment to include equity-centered assessment practices.

    assessment.  Assessment should be rooted in critical inquiry, meaning we should reject the objectivity myth and acknowledge the subjectivity and bias of those conducting assessment. To combat subjectivity, we should vary the types of evidence collected to avoid privileging certain kinds of knowledge and/or demonstrations of knowledge. Additionally, equitable assessment requires that we disaggregate data to examine structural inequities based on the privileging of some forms of learning over others. It

  • Dave Song Research GroupResearch in the Song lab centers on understanding the fundamental mechanisms of energy conversion in chemistry and biology. Our primary focus revolves around the transfer of both the proton and electron in biological catalysis via a ubiquitous mechanism called proton-coupled electron transfer (PCET), underpinning key metabolic processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, and nucleotide reduction. The mechanistic complexities associated with the inherently dual particle
