Last week, the Offices of First Year Programs & Learning Communities and Undergraduate Research sponsored Research Connections, a signature event of UConn's Month of Discovery with six interdisciplinary panels moderated by undergraduate students.
This program is intended to expose primarily first and second year students to UConn's rich landscape of research through meaningful interactions with faculty, staff, graduate students, peers, and other key partners.
We want to thank everyone involved in Research Connections this year! Recordings of each of the following panels are available on the Research Connections website.
