Undergraduate Summer Research Scholars (USRS) Program: Student Researchers, 2010
Thirteen undergraduate students participated in the Undergraduate Summer Research Scholars (USRS) program sponsored by the Center for Undergraduate Research and Scholarship this past summer. Each student worked closely with a faculty mentor on an independent research project or creative scholarly activity over a minimum of ten weeks. Depending on their area of interest, these student scholars conducted experiments out in the field and in labs, performed applied projects in the arts, or studied best practices in their discipline. The participating students and their projects are listed below.
Pictured above are Michael Romanin (top left, bottom right), Katie Barlak (and colleague, top right), and Lauren Trombley (bottom left and center).
