What is expected of Preceptors?

1. 1. Complete the Summer Research Plan. After a student applicant has been chosen and has accepted the Undergraduate Research award, the student and Preceptor will work together to complete a Summer Research Plan. This will be used as a guide for the summer activities. All research plans need to be approved by the research offices at each institution prior to the beginning of the Summer Undergraduate Research program.
   2. Provide space, supplies, and resources. The Preceptor will provide all space, supplies, and resources the student needs to complete the outlined project. They will be available to provide guidance and be a resource for the student, as well as serve as a role model for the student. Supply money is issued from the central UI INBRE Office for each student you accept. Amount may vary by location (please inquire for more details).
   3. Ensure that your students attend INBRE training sessions and seminars. Student attendance at the training and seminars is required; you will be notified of the dates and times. These sessions are an integral part of the student’s summer commitment. You are always welcome to attend these sessions with your student.
