| Abstract |
|
The Eighth National Conference of the Council on Undergraduate Research, "The Many Facets of Undergraduate Research", was held at The College of Wooster in Wooster, Ohio, June 22-24, 2000. There were more than 600 participants. Conference co-chairs Charlotte Otto (University of Michigan-Dearborn) and Patricia DeWinstanley (Oberlin College), with College of Wooster local committee co-chairs Don Jacobs and Lori Bettison-Varga, assembled a variety of plenary sessions, workshops, poster sessions, and symposia to explore a rich array of themes. Institutionalization of undergraduate research, facility design and renovation, faculty development, funding opportunities, collaborative research, assessment of research activities, and interdisciplinary research were among the issues highlighted. More than 100 workshops given by 230 presenters provided opportunities for faculty and administrators to exchange ideas on undergraduate research and science education.
