Celebrate Student Success at the 2022 I-CUREUS Conference and SaPP Showcase
Good Afternoon Colleagues,
I would like to formally invite you to join us for the annual I-CUREUS Conference on April 5 and the Students as Partners (SaPP) Showcase on April 6 to celebrate our students’ accomplishments. This year we will have students presenting from all five faculties. Join us to hear from some of the program participants and to learn about the projects they’ve completed, from exploring sustainable energy generation to examining how to create engaging online learning communities.
Carleton provides experiential learning opportunities through I-CUREUS and SaPP that help students develop important academic and transferable skills. I-CUREUS provides an avenue for undergraduate students to conduct faculty-supervised research, while SaPP gives students the chance to partner with an instructor on teaching innovation projects and course design.
Please see below for the complete list of this year’s presenters.
