Would it be unprofessional if I email professors asking for an internship?

@dunbar

But then it’s a catch-22. If you can’t do research with a professor until you’ve already completed other research, how is anyone supposed to get started?

<p>By ‘research’, I meant reading about the topics you’re interested in pursuing. Not going to the lab or whatever.</p>

@b.madison5

Would anyone who has successfully found a research internship with a professor mind PMing me what their email said? Admittedly, my email would have to take a slightly different format because I’m primarily interested in Political Science/International Relations, but it would give me a nice starting point.

<p>I’ll try to modify the email I sent to my science professor then I’ll pm you.</p>
