- Introduce students, regardless of discipline, to research: the search or discovery of new information through creative and scholarly works.
- Provide the mechanisms for students to search for research funding opportunities.
Center for Undergraduate Research
The Center for Undergraduate Research was established to:
- Facilitate collaboration among undergraduate students and faculty;
- Promote undergraduate research to internal and external audiences;
- Encourage new initiatives to create and enhance undergraduate research opportunities.
