Celebrate Undergraduate Research & Creativity
CURC
"Too many people associate their college education with lectures, tests,
and papers. . .Students at Colorado State have the opportunity to be immersed in high level hands-on
activities."

Since 1995, undergraduate students at Colorado State University have participated in a variety of events related to original research, design and the creative arts. Celebrate Undergraduate Research & Creativity provides a venue for integrating experiential learning into the undergraduate curriculum. The goals include providing scholarships for bright, ambitious Colorado State undergraduates and fostering a close connection between faculty and students. Most projects are faculty-mentored endeavors, meaning students collaborate directly with a faculty member on a research project.
The annual showcase and awards ceremony every spring features award winners from different disciplines. Students are invited to submit their award-winning projects to the CSU Libraries' Celebrate Undergraduate Research & Creativity Digital Showcase.
