Undergraduate Research During the COVID Pandemic

Wed, 16 Sep 2020 10:35:46 -0400

How has research changed due to the campus closure and the COVID pandemic? Join us for a discussion featuring undergraduate researchers.

Instead of doing bench work in a lab, researchers are switching gears to do an extended literature review. Instead of interviewing people in person, they are using the internet. Maybe they are working with data sets provided by a mentor rather than collecting data. Artists are setting up studios in their homes. Summer internships were cancelled or modified- how did researchers respond? Researchers are adapting to new methodologies, approaches, and technologies.
