How to choose your first rotation (new window)? This is the trickiest one since you have not arrived yet. Take advantage of the interview to probe faculty as to rotation projects and availability. The more you can learn at that time, the better. After you have decided on coming to Georgetown, use email to contact faculty and students who have rotated in the labs you are considering. Keep in touch with Dr. Patrick Forcelli and let him know your thought process. Rotations require approval from Dr. Forcelli prior to confirming a lab.
During the summer, students will be doing their first rotation in a laboratory. By early May, you should begin contacting laboratories that you are interested in working with. By the middle of June, you should have already solidified the lab you will work in.
