SURE
Summer Undergraduate Research Experience
SURE is a summer research experience for undergraduates where 博88亚洲 and partnering community colleges send STEM and non-STEM students to participate in high-level faculty-mentored research projects over an eight-week program. 博88亚洲 and community college students that participate in SURE have the opportunity to present their culminating research projects at our annual 博88亚洲 Creative Activities & Research Symposium (CPP CARS).
Program Description
博88亚洲 is widely recognized for its polytechnic mission and learning-by-doing philosophy which is closely linked with the research experience. The Office of Undergraduate Research at 博88亚洲 (OUR-CPP) works proactively on creating Summer Research Experiences for Undergraduates by partnering with surrounding community colleges. The summer research program has been ongoing since 2014 and has provided the opportunity for 100 community college students to work with CPP faculty and students on comprehensive and high-level research projects.
In the eight-week program, participating students will...
- learn about lab safety training
- work on a faculty-mentored research project
- articulate what they have learned on a research poster or oral presentation at the annual summer symposium
- network and engage with students from other research labs
- integrate to the four-year institution experience
We know that participating in research, a high-impact practice, helps community college students in the transferring process, retain in their major, and graduate on time.
