Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"I would say to be honest. If you are willing to put in the hours to complete a test run, let the Prof. you are interviewing with know that. It is quite a bit of work, and more waiting, but it is worth it to see your results go toward a published paper!"

What don't you like about working at University of Nebraska?

I also did not like that we had to move our lab equipment due to renovations being completed on one of the buildings. Due to this, one of my projects was delayed."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Take off the hour restrictions on student research. Also, I would like to have had a better study to base my research on (we were not sure if some of the results were fabricated). Everything else was amazing!"
