Abstract

This poster describes the logistics of a 4-week interdisciplinary course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE) that has been implemented for 1st year STEM students. The CURE is highly modifiable and leads to increases in comprehension of the scientific method, academic confidence, and feelings of belonging.
