OURS Connects Research Workshop Recordings

OURS Connects Workshop Gallery

OURS Connects is a volunteer research experience that does not require a class component. This semi-structured format is helpful for students who have busy schedules, but the lack of a class removes a community aspect that is critical to many new to research (or any field).

To provide this community aspect, the OURS Team prepares research-oriented workshops aimed at providing insight into the research process, answering frequently asked questions, and help aid in research preparedness. These Workshops are lead by our talented staff of student peer advisors and past research assistants, giving anecdotes from their past experiences in research.

Workshops are hosted live (either in-person or through zoom) and recorded for future access.
