Faculty and staff in all disciplines are encouraged to consider involving undergraduates in research, scholarly, and creative endeavors.  

ICRU is committed to meaningful experiences for everyone who participates in undergraduate research - faculty, staff, and students included.  Undergraduate researchers learn and contribute most effectively when expectations are clear and their mentors make them feel like valuable members of a team.  If you are a mentor who would like to start working with undergraduates, or if you already work with undergraduates, ICRU can help you learn more about creating a positive, successful experience with undergraduates for yourself and the students at the University of Iowa.
