Description
Within the University at Albany, the Center for Undergraduate Research and Creative Engagement (CURCE) hosts the Annual Undergraduate Research Conference, a program designed to showcase and promote student success and research excellence. Previously, CURCE has relied upon outdated and inefficient methods for soliciting student submissions for this conference. This process will be greatly enhanced by a partnership with the University Libraries, through the use of the Scholars Archive. This open-access tool represents an opportunity that will drastically reduce costs associated with the abstract submission process, improve workflow, and involve faculty in the conference planning and application processes. Utilization of the Scholars Archive will ultimately increase productivity and efficiency, allowing CURCE to provide enhanced opportunities that will significantly benefit both faculty and students engaging in the only university-wide undergraduate research conference.
