Curious about research but not sure where to start? Join us for an interactive workshop designed to demystify undergraduate research and help you take the first step toward getting involved.
Students will learn about different types of research, hear directly from faculty mentors and student researchers, practice finding potential research mentors, and discover how to write an effective email to a professor about research opportunities.
You’ll leave with:
A better understanding of what undergraduate research actually looks like
Strategies for finding faculty and research opportunities that match your interests
Tips for approaching and communicating with potential research mentors
A research CV template and faculty email template
A clearer understanding of the skills faculty value in student researchers
One potential research mentor to contact
A practical next step: reach out to one potential mentor before the next workshop
You don’t need research experience to get started. You just need to know where to begin!
