Calling all faculty mentors and undergraduate researchers! Ready to catch the wave of opportunity? Join us for the Student Undergraduate Research Fellowship (SURF) Open House on Wednesday, September 10, 2025, from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. in Torreyson West, Suite 328. This is your chance to ask questions, learn the ins and outs of the application process, and enjoy some snacks with the friendly folks from the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs.
Jennifer Deering will be on hand to discuss developing and writing a persuasive application. Deborah Donald and Brian LeBlanc will be available to discuss the budget and budget justification. And Lasi McGhee will take questions related to research compliance (IRB and IACUC approvals).
Whether you’re a mentor helping a fellow student launch their research adventure or a curious student ready to dive into a funded scholarly project, this Open House is your first step toward success. Hope to see you there!
