Office for Undergraduate Research and Artistry
Attend an OURA Workshop
We are now hosting development workshops for undergraduate research and artistry students. These are designed for students just entering or curious about research, those getting ready to take it to the next level, and every student in between. Check out our Fall 2022 offerings here.
Attend the Grad Student Showcase on Nov 1
This is a showcase of research, entrepreneurship, and creativity – a conference for graduate students to present their work and talents. It is also a time for undergraduates to connect with the graduate students and faculty at CSU, and learn about research and other creative opportunities on campus. Each year we need volunteers (undergrad students) to serve as judges for the undergraduate choice award. Sign up here
The mission of OURA is to serve as a resource at Colorado State University to promote and expand experiential learning for undergraduate students through research, artistic, and other creative experiences with skilled mentors. We embrace CSU’s Principles of Community in our daily work and highly value the contributions of all undergraduate researchers and artists in any and all disciplines across all 8 colleges. OURA’s vision is to provide opportunities for all undergraduate students to discover, realize, and act on their interests and passions. We are continually challenging ourselves to view all OURA programs and initiatives with an equity lens and to center minoritized students in all that we do. A core value of OURA is that our success will be the result of intentional efforts that are focused on equity and inclusiveness paired with assessment and revision. OURA views diversity, equity, inclusion and justice (DEIJ) efforts as inseparable from our work.
