Journal of Undergraduate Research
Browse by
From 2008-2015, the Journal of Undergraduate Research (JUR) was a publication of the Office of Undergraduate Research at the University of Kansas that highlighted the scholarly works of undergraduate students across campus. The goal of the JUR was to provide visibility to undergraduate research at KU, including student's personal stories about the research process and, of course, the products of their hard work. The publishers wanted to show other students, instructors, future employers, and parents what undergraduate research looks like at KU, and student work is the best way to highlight the diversity of academic inquiries going on across campus
