Each Fall and Winter Term, PURE sponsors a special event: Sharing Undergraduate Research Experiences (SURE). The purpose of each SURE event is to encourage undergraduate research. We hope to do so by:

• sharing research stories and experiences from undergraduates;
• hearing about research collaboration from undergraduates and mentoring faculty;
• learning about opportunities for undergraduates to get grants that support research;
• understanding how research and research experiences can improve our quality of life as well as our education;
• engaging with student and faculty presenters to learn how other undergraduates can have these opportunities.

Here is a video from SURE in Fall 2018.
