“As a Summer URG recipient, a Research Assistant to an Art History faculty member through URAP, and as a presenter in the annual Research Expo, I have greatly benefited from the resources and mentorship offered by the Office of Undergraduate Research. Peter and the entire Office helped me learn how to frame and articulate my research, which helped me apply for and receive one of the 2019-2020 Franke Undergraduate Fellowships through the Kaplan Institute. From providing funding for me to spend my summer in local archives and conducting interviews, to assisting me in traveling to California to present at my first conference, the OUR helped me go further with this research project than I had ever thought possible. As I spend this month putting the finishing touches on my senior honors thesis, the culminating moment of my undergraduate research, I am grateful to have had the opportunity to be so supported by the OUR. I encourage everyone to make an appointment, they can be transformative!”
