Summer Hope Academic Research Program (SHARP)

The Summer Hope Academic Research Program (SHARP) is used to advertise summer student-faculty collaborative research opportunities and hire summer research students. SHARP serves all academic divisions. SHARP has two major components:

A database and application software system (the SHARP Application System), which provides a common place for students to apply for summer research experiences. It also streamlines the logistic components of hosting summer research students by department office managers, human resources, campus safety and housing.
Summer programming such as ethics training, ice cream socials and divisional opportunities to present research.

Council on Undergraduate听Research

换妻社区 is recognized not only for the extent and quality of undergraduate research, but also for our national leadership in promoting undergraduate research for student learning, personal development and successful outcomes. Hope faculty were among the founding members the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR) in the 1980s.

换妻社区 has an enhanced institutional membership to CUR, so every Hope faculty member in any division is eligible for free membership to CUR. CUR membership provides several benefits, as outlined on the 换妻社区 CUR website.
