Award for Outstanding Undergraduate Scholar

The URE Steering Committee offers this prestigious award to recognize undergraduate students who exemplify scholarly activity. Qualities that make a student successful in scholarly activities characterize those same qualities FHSU seeks to develop in students: original thought, creative ideas, communicating with professional colleagues, critical reasoning, analysis of research, translation of evidence into practice, and first-hand knowledge of how work is performed within a professional discipline.

The URE Steering Committee will provide five awards, one for an outstanding undergraduate student from each college. Nomination letters can come from FHSU faculty or staff, and should be submitted through this website no later than March 6, 2020. Any FHSU undergraduate student--including KAMS and Virtual College students--is eligible. The research project may be from the award year or past years; however, the student must have been an undergraduate student for a minimum of one semester during the award year. The nomination should describe the scholarly qualifications and products of the student--for example, published papers, professional presentations, on-campus research activities, musical/artistic performance, or other novel scholarly activity. The nomination should clarify the role of the undergraduate student in the scholarly activity. The nominator should also include the nominee's CV or resume.

Nominations will be evaluated by a subcommittee, who will make a recommendation to the full URE Steering Committee. Winners will be recognized during Undergraduate Research Week in April 2020. https://fhsu.infoready4.com/CompetitionSpace/#competitionDetail/1807233
