Office for Undergraduate Research and Artistry
Collaborate with OURA on grants and projects
Are you interested in including undergraduate research in one of your projects or grant proposals? Working with OURA to meaningfully include undergraduate research or community engagement means your program or activities will have a broader impact, you will get access to the full range of resources OURA has to offer (including some assessment activities), and will demonstrate a strong partnership to potential funders.
This page provides access to resources for those interested in integrating undergraduate research and mentoring activities into their grant proposals. The folder contains the following resources:
- Guide for integrating UR and mentoring activities into your proposal: A step-by-step guide that walks you through the literature, types of UR and mentoring activities, components of grant proposals where UR and mentoring is relevant, and more.
- Folder for relevant literature: A folder that contains PDFs of some of the referenced material if you are interested in learning more. The annotated bibliography is periodically updated to give you a summary of relevant literature but is not comprehensive.
- Templates for data collection: A folder that contains Qualtrics templates for the assessments referenced in the Guide. You can import these templates directly into your CSU Qualtrics account for modification and implementation.
- Examples of grant proposals: A folder that will contain examples of grant proposals that have integrated UR and mentoring activities. We will update this folder as we receive permission from CSU Principal Investigators to share their work.
