If you know students who are interested in getting started in undergraduate research, please remind them that it’s time to apply for the Cougar Undergraduate Research Experience (CURE) 2016. It will be offered May 9 – 13 this year. As explained on the CURE website, “This research tutorial program gives students an idea of what to expect as undergraduate researchers by introducing the jargon and methods of research. Students will also have the opportunity to meet faculty members and visit their research areas. CURE covers every step of the process, from finding a mentor to disseminating their research findings.” Scholarships are available.
Students can submit their applications here: https://undergraduateresearch.wsu.edu/programs/cure/. Any questions can be sent to UGresearch@wsu.edu. We’re already making offers, and are planning to finish doing so soon – students should apply by the end of the month, April 30. Thank you for supporting undergraduate research.
