SURE is sponsored by the Division of Research and Economic Development, Honors College, Brain Health Research Institute, Healthy Communities Research Institute, Environmental Science and Design Research Institute, Global Understanding Research Institute, Anti-racism and Equity Institute, Office of the President and the Paul and Janis DiCorleto Summer Research Award Endowment, and the William Doane SURE Fund.  In addition, SURE is supported by the following individuals, departments, colleges, institutes and others

The Student Research Experience provides an opportunity for students to collaborate in one-on- one research with a faculty member at any point in their educational journey.  Students benefit in working with a faculty member to acquire basic research skills and develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills. In addition, the engagement provides students with hands-on experiences as they formulate decisions about majors and careers.
