The Northeastern University Chapter of Sigma Xi has two primary audiences: upperclass students with substantial independent research, and incoming students who want to become more involved in research but who have not yet done independent research. Students with substantial research may apply to become Affiliate or Associate Members Sigma Xi at the end of each Spring semester. Activities for Affiliate and Associate Members include: attending monthly chapter meetings, meetings to improve public speaking and slide creation, meetings about research awards, grants, and post-grad fellowships, executive board member-led gatherings, and meetings with research faculty and alumni to gain advice and insight.Students with minimal research experience seeking mentorship are well suited to becoming part of the Research Immerse Program (please note that you do NOT need to be a member of the honor society to participate in the Research Immerse Program - welcome to all Northeastern Undergraduates). The Research Immerse Program is a year-long commitment that runs from each Fall to Spring semester. Activities for Immerse Program members include: attending bi-weekly workshops that learn them how to conduct a scientific literature review by mentorship of Sigma Xi Affiliate or Associate Members, completing monthly assignments on their proposed research topic, and presenting their research at a research symposium at the end of the Spring semester.We also support the Think Like A Scientist program that is open to all Northeastern Undergraduates where students may mentor K-12 science experiments and projects in local Boston Public Schools. Activities for Think Like A Scientist mentors include: participating in weekly outreach programs, helping to develop curricula and lesson plans, and facilitating outreach within the Northeastern and Greater Boston communities.
