Join the Undergraduate Research Committee at our semi-annual research mixer! This will be a great opportunity for students and faculty members to meet to discuss their research interests, with the goal of establishing mentor-mentee relationships for next semester.

If you are a faculty member who has mentored student researchers before, or are new to the mentoring process, we hope you can come meet the next group of student researchers!

If you’re a student interested in starting a research project, come learn more about the opportunities available at City Tech.

We hope to see you in N119 on 12/4 at the end of the first day of the Student Research Poster Session.

Today: Research Mixer!

Today is the semi-annual Research Mixer, an opportunity for students to learn from faculty mentors about benefits of and opportunities for working with a mentor to conduct a research project. The Undergraduate Research Committee hopes that the mixer will facilitate meaningful connections between research mentors and students interested in research. Not sure if you’re ready to take on a research project? Come listen and find out more about the process!

Use the OpenLab for your research!

We hope that faculty and students will collaborate on their research here on the OpenLab. It’s a great place for collaborating while conducting research, and for sharing the research results as they are available. Throughout the semester, there are opportunities for faculty and staff to learn about using the OpenLab, and additional events for students to learn about using the OpenLab. Check out the posters below for more information.
