The Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR) launched in November of 2023 and had a great first year of operations in 2024, supporting students and campus partners. Our goal in 2024 was to effectively communicate our mission, vision, and values to the campus we serve and build the programmatic, academic, and infrastructural foundations that would allow us to scale and sustain our efforts in the years to come.
We are happy to share that the OUR 2024 Annual Review is now available on our website. It provides an overview of OUR mission, vision, and values, as well as student highlights, programs and services, events, and plans for 2025.
We are excited for the next year to come! We just launched ForagerOne and encourage students and campus partners to use this new resource dedicated to connecting undergraduate students and campus partners based on shared creative, research, and scholarly interests. We are running our first OURS courses in Spring 2025 and have calls for proposals to enable campus partners to integrate with existing and new OUR programs this year.
