Description
Undergraduate research is often described as a high impact practice. It has been found to promote student engagement, retention, and future success. However, little time is spent discussing the specific mechanisms or outcomes that justify this label. This presentation will use micro-stories to explore the experiences of students with undergraduate research and the resulting impacts. Lessons learned from programs operated through the Undergraduate Research Center will be shared, as will results of recent alumni surveys.
