In this panel presentation, participants learned about three different models for students conducting research at two-year colleges. Panelists described: a project-based assignment in a course, a course-based undergraduate research experience (CURE), and an extracurricular student research project. Panelists addressed questions of defining research and appropriate projects, recruiting and retaining students, and finding support such as funding.
