The Office of Student Engagement and Experiential Learning (OSEEL) is dedicated to providing opportunities for undergraduates to engage in hands-on learning. Through OSEEL's undergraduate research, service projects, themed learning communities, and other high impact practices, NIU students develop critical thinking, use creativity, and employ multiple communication strategies while applying their skills to real-world problems. This collection contains student research materials selected from the annual Conference on Undergraduate Research and Engagement (CURE) as well as student reports from the various OSEEL programs
