2009 Undergraduate Research Opportunities
Students interested in working on faculty-sponsored research projects during the summer are invited to attend a Research Opportunity Fair on January 22. The event will be held in Chapman's Great Hall from 4:30 to 6, with brief remarks by Drs. Diane Smith and Mark Brodl at about 5. Refreshments will be served.
Research mentors that appear in bold type below are expected to attend the fair. Students are encouraged to contact potential research mentors as soon as possible.
