Research Opportunities Using Undergraduate Students
CHS Undergraduate Research Program (UGR) is an excellent resource for you to find and recruit motivated and energetic undergraduates who are ready, willing, and able to get involved in your research work. The demand for research experiences by our Health Sciences undergraduates continues to outstrip our supply, so I really need your help to develop more opportunities for our students! I want to encourage post-docs, and doctoral students to avail themselves of our program just as the faculty do! Having motivated student research aides in the starting phases of developing a research line can be amazingly helpful.
If you have the bandwidth to mentor undergraduate research students, please go to the CHS Undergraduate Research website to submit a research opportunity. Included in this site are the exact instructions needed to submit a CHS undergraduate research opportunity. Print this handout and keep it on your desk or on your bulletin board, surrounded by pictures of your loved ones, or favorite pets….so you are constantly reminded about the wonderful benefits of our undergraduate research program!
Miscellaneous Forms:
- Authorship Guidelines
- University of Kentucky Photo Release Form
- Criteria of the Next Environment (CONE) Model: the CONE model describes the template by which the doctoral program was developed. This type of model focuses attention on the demands of the students in the anticipated environments in which they will be working.
