The Science Dept. requires the APA (American Psychological Association) style of referencing, which is in-text citations using both AUTHOR and DATE.

AUTHOR Style, e.g., MLA - Modern Language Association

This is the style with "author" -- and "page number" (if relevant).

Scentists have proved that mice can sing (Mice Research).  But others disagree (Smith, Brown, and Kaser 135).

AUTHOR-DATE Style, e.g., APA - American Psychological Association

This is the style with "author" and "date" -- and "page number" (if relevant).  For example:

Scientists have proved that mice can sing ("Mice Research," 2012).  But others disagree (Smith, Brown, & Kaser, 2013, p. 135).

FOOTNOTES Style, e.g., the Chicago Manual of Style (CMS)

This is the "foonotes" style.

Scientists have proved that mice can sing.1  But others disgree.2

NOTE:  All three of the styles above would still have a "Works Cited" or "Bibliography" section at the end of the paper, where all the sources are listed alphabetically, in one list.
