Undergraduate Research Committee

Charge – The charge to the Undergraduate Research Committee is to promote and support “high-quality mentored undergraduate research, scholarship, and creative inquiry” as a high-impact practice for student success (i.e., to improve retention and graduation rates for all students, and to close gaps in retention and graduation rates among students of color, and not just as enrichment or value-added experience for our high performing or “high flyer” students). In support of this goal, the Undergraduate Research Committee also will promote and support professional development opportunities for faculty, staff, administrators, and students. The Undergraduate Research Committee also serves a significant role in the organization and presentation of EURECA, and how it relates to and feeds into the Eastern Regional Undergraduate Research Symposium.

Specific, achievable actions for the 2020 – 2021 academic year will be to review the assessment of the Committee’s major accomplishments, challenges, and recommendations, submitted in May 2020, and develop a plan to enhance undergraduate research at Penn State Brandywine, in alignment with the charge articulated above.
