At Mesa Community College, undergraduate research experiences occur in all disciplines. Students may experience undergraduate research in courses where faculty integrate student original research as a learning activity. Students may also connect 1:1 with faculty to conduct research as a special projects course or as a course-related Honors Project.

In these videos, students from MCC share the benefits of participating in undergraduate research.

Undergraduate research is a mentored investigation or creative inquiry conducted by undergraduates that seeks to make a scholarly or artistic contribution to knowledge (Council on Undergraduate Research, 2021). New and returning students are invited to engage with undergraduate research experiences.
