The Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR) facilitates and supports undergraduate student engagement in research and scholarly activities. This activity involves faculty and student collaboration in original research that should result in some tangible product (i.e. publication, presentation, performance, or exhibition), but its most valuable contribution is the development of our students in ways not possible in traditional classroom settings.

Membership Benefits
Undergraduate research can look vastly different between disciplines, but the underlying principle is the same: exploration and discovery. Whether your research leads you out on a boat to collect water samples or is required before creating a beautiful work of art, the value of undergraduate research is priceless. Students who have participated in undergraduate research benefit in many ways, including:

1.) acquiring research, communication, and professional skills

2.) developing critical thinking, self-confidence, and creativity

3.) engaging a deeper understanding of a discipline or potential career path and

4.) strengthening preparation for graduate or professional school or the workforce.
