5th Annual Undergraduate Research and Creative Inquiry Showcase, Thursday, April 19, 2018,
10 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., in the Convocation Center
Please mark your calendar for the 5th Annual Undergraduate Research and Creative Inquiry
Showcase, Thursday, April 19, 2018, 10 a.m. to 2:00 p.m., in the Convocation Center. The
event is hosted by the Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR).
The Showcase features hundreds of undergraduate research projects and creative endeavors
from all disciplines. The event is designed to increase the visibility and participation
of undergraduates in scholarly endeavors across all areas of academic inquiry. Such
scholarly experiences complement classroom instruction, provide hands-on experience in the
student's field of interest, and develop critical thinking, creativity, and problem
solving skills.
Your attendance would signal support for undergraduate research and would be welcomed by
students and their faculty mentors. Although your participation is not needed for the
entire event, a brief visit (e.g., 30 min) would be much appreciated.
