Description/Abstract
Since its inception, the Center for Undergraduate Research and Academic Engagement at Florida State has challenged the conceptualization of research to include engagement in creative projects. The Center has promoted early participation through a section of the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program devoted exclusively to creative pursuits. Displaying these projects at research symposia, however, has presented an interesting challenge. Solutions have included creative breaks in the schedule for performances and rooms dedicated to installation art. This poster explores some of the ways we encourage participation in creative projects and weave the arts into the standard undergraduate research experience.
