Designing and Implementing a Successful Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and Creative Activity Program is designed as a resource for faculty, administrators, and university leaders interested in developing new, or expanding existing, undergraduate research programs. The book provides a practical handbook addressing the many "how to" questions associated with running a successful undergraduate research enterprise ? ranging from how to organize an undergraduate research office, to how to find funding, foster cross-campus relationships, and develop learning outcomes for students in order to maximize the benefits of the research experience. It also addresses best practices in mentoring, how faculty mentorship fits within the discussion of tenure and promotion, and the basics of assessment, for both funder reporting and program improvement.
Containing a series of vignettes offering specific advice from program directors, faculty mentors, and university administrators from a diverse array of universities and colleges, this book showcases their hands-on tips, advice, and lessons learned. Addressing key issues through real-world experience, the authors show how to build effective cross-disciplinary undergraduate research programs with positive impacts for students and faculty.
