Recipe for Success: Basic Ingredients for Undergraduate Research

Abstract

Please join a panel of Mershon Center professors for an interdisciplinary discussion on the basic ingredients of a good undergraduate research project.

Panel members will cite examples of good undergraduate research projects and address such questions as: • How do you develop good research questions? • What types of methodologies should you use in your research? • What foundation do you need to have before undertaking a research project? What theories and facts do you need to know? What classes do you need to take? • How can undergraduates work with the Institutional Review Board? • How can undergraduates make connections with faculty members?
