Undergraduate Research at Vanderbilt

Posted by Beth Fox on Thursday, February 12, 2015 in Launch.

We worked closely with the Office of the Provost to launch a new website celebrating undergraduate research at Vanderbilt, in part to support the new strategic emphasis on the immersion experience for undergraduate students at the university.

Undergraduate Research at Vanderbilt is designed to expose students to the scope of research opportunities available at the university and provide the foundation that students need to begin the research experience. The site features tips for getting started, research opportunities organized by discipline, forums for presenting work, and students’ testimonials.

The site – especially the “buckets” of content near the bottom of the homepage – is designed in part to mimic the look the Research News @ Vanderbilt site, which was also created by and is supported by Web Communications. Both sites are powered by WordPress.

Web Communications always enjoys working closely with Vice Provost for Learning and Digital Affairs Cynthia J. Cyrus on projects such as this.
