Undergraduate Student Research
The achievements of our students reflect the quality of the programs in our seven academic departments. One of the strengths of the science and mathematics programs at Millersville is the emphasis on undergraduate research, industry co-op experiences, and internships that engage our students in research experiences around the country. This year 140 of our upper-level students were engaged in undergraduate research under the tutelage of a faculty member and 19 students completed industry co-ops. Seven earth sciences students completed internships at TV stations, the Goddard Space Center , the National Hurricane Center , and the NOAA Environmental Research Center and two computer science students had internships at NIST. For many of these students their research projects continued over several semesters and resulted in departmental and university honors in recognition of the quality of the research. Most of these projects were reported in oral presentations in departmental and university colloquia including the Millersville University Student Research Conference and the Nursing Advanced Practice Colloquium. Student researchers were recognized at the May Student Research Recognition Ceremony and 36 select poster papers were on display in the Caputo Hall lobby.
