Content
During Block 3 of the Bachelor of Pharmaceutical Sciences, the student opting for the "in-depth research" minor (student-researcher) will carry out a research project in a laboratory under the supervision of a promoter. The objectives of this research immersion are as follows
   To learn the scientific process
   To formulate a scientific question, a working hypothesis
   Develop the means to answer it, design an experimental plan or a data collection strategy
   Carry out experiments / collect data
   Analyse and criticise the results
   Validate, amend the initial hypothesis
Putting the results into perspective and continuing

Teaching methods
Laboratory immersion throughout the academic year as soon as the course schedule permits. One month full-time internship during the period mid-April/mid-May. Preparation of a presentation on his/her research work.
Evaluation methods
At the end of the June session, the student makes a presentation to the student-researchers' committee on his/her research work, setting out the context and the questions raised during the work, the strategy and means used to answer the questions, the initial results obtained and their perspective. The student is questioned on his/her work and knowledge of the field and justification of the experiments implemented.
The evaluation is weighted as follows
-50% by the mark given by the members of the student-researcher commission
-50% of the evaluation by the promoter, which includes the following criteria
a) understanding of the techniques, their possibilities and limitations
b) mastery of techniques, quality of experimental work or data collection
c) critical thinking about the results
d) involvement in the work: amount of work done, autonomy
e) research in the literature
