FYE Lecture Series - Visiting Assistant Professor George Meindl

Course-Based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs), in which whole classes of students address a research question or problem with unknown outcomes or solutions, have recently emerged as a preferred strategy for providing research experiences to undergraduate students. In addition to fostering a strong foundational knowledge of a particular field of study, CUREs provide opportunities for students to develop skills in conducting scientific research, effectively navigating scientific literature, communicating about science, and collaborating with other scientists. In this talk, I will discuss the development, implementation, and outcomes of CUREs focusing on solving environmental problems in the Environmental Studies Program at Binghamton University.
