It was another great year of undergraduate research at NSOE!
Through the Bonaventura Summer Research Fellows, Marine Lab Scholars and Climate Scholars programs, as well as Graduation with Distinction work, students gain hands-on experience in experimental design and research methods and conduct their own faculty-mentored research.
Swipe to see just a few of the many examples ➡️
Juliet Wong’s goal as a teacher is to equip students with the tools to build more resilient ecosystems. 🌱
