2016 Outstanding Undergraduate Researcher Award Winners
This year’s nominees are a very impressive group. A number of them were commended for making significant contributions to more than one research project, several were authors or coauthors on multiple papers, others had made presentations at major conferences, and some had produced software artifacts that are in wide use.
Many nominees had been involved in successful summer research or internship programs; many had worked as teaching assistants, tutors, or mentors; and a number were significantly involved in community volunteer efforts.
