Undergraduate Research Week 2022
The Office of Undergraduate Research and Creative Inquiry is preparing for Undergraduate Research Week 2022. This is a week designated by the Council for Undergraduate Research where undergraduate research is celebrated, students are congratulated on their research and faculty are thanked for their help and guidance throughout the process. This year the week is scheduled for April 18-22, 2022.
