Distinction Through Discovery: Research
Research as Defined by the QEP
The DTD Steering Committee articulated a working definition of “research” (adapted from the Council of Undergraduate Research, CUR): An inquiry or investigation conducted by an undergraduate student that makes an original intellectual or creative contribution to the discipline or practice.
Student Learning Outcomes
Research and inquiry learning activities can be incorporated into the curriculum through a series of targeted Student Learning Outcomes (SLOs). These include:
SLO 1: Knowledge. Students will demonstrate content knowledge, core principles, and skills.Research Ethics and Compliance
Undergraduate Research and scholarly projects may require compliance to meet state and federal regulations. Please keep in mind that some research compliance issues may take 6 - 8 weeks to be resolved. We highly suggest students conducting any research or scholarly activities participate in
CITI – the Collaborative Inter-Institutional Training Initiative
training. This provides access to courses that are designed to be used by institutions and organizations to provide comprehensive training in a variety of areas such as Institutional Review Board (IRB), Good Clinical Practices, Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) and other areas (content borrowed from the
FAU DOR
website).
