Enriching Undergraduate Research at Chaminade University (Likable Science)
Channel: ThinkTech Hawaii
Date: 2018-02-24

Chaminade’s various summer enrichment opportunities for students positively impact their academics, grad school opportunities and career trajectories.  Dr. Cogbill, and a senior student, Kaikeline McCarthy, will provide perspectives on the value and power of these experiences.  Enabling undergraduate students to experience authentic scientific research first-hand can have powerful effects on both their pursuit of further science education and on the self-efficacy. Summer research experiences in labs across the US and conferences both here and elsewhere can expand students’ horizons, bolster their self-confidence, and provide them with more competitive backgrounds for further scientific explorations.
