- What we have here today, is
Undergraduate Research Day,
bringing together all faculty
across the disciplines,
that practice undergraduate
research engaging students
in their scholarship.
- And what we're doing is
presenting the research we've
done over the past year to other students,
as well as faculty, and
anyone who seeks to come
and find out exactly what we do here,
as well as give an opportunity
for students to learn
about the things they
could be doing with
their time here in campus
as well as their undergraduate life.
- Well, you get to showcase what you did,
all the hard work from the last semester.
You get to show them what
you've done and accomplished in.
- Everyone spends a lot of time and effort
in pretty much trying
to solve a hypothesis,
a question they want solved,
and with scientific research
can back up whether or
not it's true or false.
- So this is also a great
opportunity for students
to communicate all the
exciting things they're
doing in their own research with others,
and to learn from their
peers, to get ideas,
to bounce ideas off the faculty,
to get feedback on their work.
- See what our fellow students
are doing with their time
in the laboratory and
expanding our horizons,
as to the various related
topics and the fields,
that exist in the sciences this year.
- I get to speak to faculty and students
from different departments
which is really cool.
I just spoke to someone
in the Bio Department.
We help each other out.
It's very, a lot of collaborative work.
- Seeing other student's work,
seeing how hard they
work on the experiments,
really like impacts other students to come
and do research as well.
- It's actually a great
opportunity to network with others,
to learn about various, different fields,
and to see which field you
are most comfortable with,
or which one you're most interested in.
- I think this is one of
the best networking events,
that you could possibly attend.
Not only are you surrounded
by other scientists
and students that are interested
in this type of field,
but you get to really gain knowledge
on the different problems and questions,
that are trying to be
solved here in the world.
- It's gonna give me a lot of experience,
working research lab when
I graduate from school,
and go to my career.
I do wanna become a researcher.
