My research was unlike any other work I have ever done because rather than only reflecting upon the work other scholars have done, I was able to produce my own study with my own data and my own voice.

              Leah Corey, 2007

 

The Office of Undergraduate Research enabled my research to come to life. Walking the streets of Rome and seeing the artwork, geography, and history that I had previously studied only in books emerge before my eyes was an essential aspect of writing a convincing and meaningful thesis.

          Lauren Staub, 2006

 

I consider my research a vital addition to my undergraduate education, for a true consciousness of the academic world comes by formulating questions, designing experiments, and finding answers through investigation.

              Cory L. Simpson, 2003

 

Through undergraduate research, I have found the courage to be a lifelong learner …I am eager to question what I think I know in order to better understand my world. This eagerness—this courage—has made my undergraduate research experience invaluable.

Wanda Savala, 2011
