Undergraduate Research in the Community (UGRC)
UCR undergraduates of Kindling Intellectual Development (KID) sit together with youth from Riverside's Downtown area in an undergraduate project titled "iDiscover" in Summer 2010.
The mission of Undergraduate Research in the Community (UGRC) is to cultivate opportunities, make connections, and provide support to students, faculty, and community organizations so that they may work collaboratively on research, scholarship, and creative activity that address community needs.
Knowing the potentially transformative power of discovery, UGRC values collaboration, curiosity, and humility as essential in engaging multiple sources of knowledge in the community and supporting students as they develop a more subtle, empathetic, and complex understanding of our world.
The UGRC office provides students, faculty, and community partners resources and assistance in the development of collaborative research projects.
Interested students, faculty and community partners can contact Becca Spence Dobias, Coordinator of Undergraduate Research in the Community at:
