Welcome to the
Undergraduate Research web site. Our mission is to oversee programs that
provide opportunities for students to engage in research with a Dartmouth
College faculty mentor. These close collaborations between faculty and students
provide a forum for faculty to teach and mentor undergraduates on a one-on-one
basis outside the classroom. Students acquire first hand experience in an
academic field of research while developing important skills such as critical
thinking, information gathering and processing, and effective communication.
