Colleges and universities are seeking creative ways to showcase undergraduate work and connect students with faculty mentors. Highlighting undergraduate research online not only improves student learning outcomes; it shows prospective students what they can expect from specific faculty mentors and programs. Please join us for a free webinar that shares how institutions are using comprehensive publishing platforms and mentor galleries to meet curricular goals and produce exciting opportunities for undergraduate scholars. Aurora Arder, an expert on undergraduate research and a member of the bepress Consulting Services team, will introduce a variety of ways to publish and promote undergraduate work, including student-led peer-reviewed journals, conferences and symposia, and unique classroom projects. Join us for a look at top undergraduate collections and learn best practices for promoting student research on campus and beyond. Title: New Approaches to Highlighting Undergraduate Opportunities Date/time: Tuesday, February 28, 2017 at 11am Pacific/2pm Eastern Register here: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/2484673458631794690 We hope you can join us!
