Career and Internship Resources
The best way to find a research opportunity with a professor is to look at their websites on the people pages of the department and familiarize yourself with the research that they do. Then you can decide if it's something you're interested in and contact the professor and tell them why you are interested in their research and why you want to work with them in particular. Professors get inquiries from many students so it helps to show that you have a keen interest in their work.
