March 11, 2025
Efforts from the West Virginia University Office of Undergraduate Research to connect undergraduate students with research opportunities and faculty mentors are being recognized nationally by the Council on Undergraduate Research with its Award for Undergraduate Research Accomplishments.
Announced today (March 11), the award recognizes institutions with exemplary programs that provide high quality and collaborative research experiences for undergraduates.
“The undergraduate student research experience at WVU is truly unique,” Vice President for Research Fred King said. “From their earliest days on campus, we offer novel experiential learning opportunities and one-on-one mentorships between students and faculty. Along this special journey, students develop a passion for identifying problems and develop confidence in their ability to apply what they have learned to solving those problems.”
