"I presented research that I had done at a national conference…I would have never thought that I would go to a national conference as an undergraduate. Dr. Goebel pushed us not only to present what we thought we knew about what we were doing, but to do our own research and develop our own presentation."

Jennifer Ruelens, Class of 2003
Conferences and Publications

So you think presenting at national and regional conferences and publishing papers in prestigious journals is only for graduate students? Not here. At Robert E. Cook Honors College and IUP, undergraduate students receive amazing opportunities.

This is primarily an undergraduate institution, so the faculty is focusing on you. That means that undergraduates are invited or able to do things that are usually reserved for graduate students at many other universities. Professors will be inviting you to work with them on research projects and to co-author papers. You get a shot at helping to run a lab. If you want a part in a play or a spot in the jazz band, that is possible since there aren't graduate students competing with you for those plums.
