ENGAGING STUDENTS IN THEIR COURSE WORK THROUGH COLLABORATIVE PROJECTS TO<br />
CREATE AN ENVIRONMENT WHERE STUDENTS ARE EMPOWERED BY THE CURRICULUM<br />
GOAL: To provide students with opportunities to conduct original research and creative projects that will<br />
increase their competitiveness and readiness for graduate school and their chosen careers.<br />
There are increasing numbers of student-faculty collaborative research and creative projects. These exploratory<br />
learning experiences include work in the sciences and social sciences, as well as the fine arts and humanities.<br />
Before graduating, every student should have the opportunity to take part in undergraduate research or a creative<br />
project with a member of the faculty.<br />
The <strong>University</strong> hosts an annual mini-conference to display recent research projects that students have completed.<br />
Last year’s Undergraduate Research and Creativity Symposium showcased 29 projects.<br />
