 Hi, I'm Sarah Shoemaker and here's the rest of our mentorship and research team at NCSSM. Over the past four decades, NCSSM has been going through great links to provide student learning through unique experiences for students. And our team has had the pleasure of leading that effort with the school by supporting NCSSM faculty-driven opportunities that are offered within departments, as well as running programs that cultivate opportunities for students to work with researchers and professionals who serve as mentors in research innovation experiences for students. So you might be asking yourself as you get excited hearing about this, how will NCSSM engage you as you design your future? So there's a wide variety of real-world learning experiences to engage as a thinker maker and doer, both in and outside of the classroom at NCSSM. These include opportunities such as service, leadership, entrepreneurship, robotics, and much more. Over the past five years, we've greatly expanded our research opportunities for students to pursue their passions and to develop not only research skills, but also the transformative skills or soft skills, those that are vital for student success, such as how to embrace failure as a necessary part of the process of learning, how to approach and solve a problem as part of a team, and how to effectively communicate their findings and their personal growth through the process. Speaking of research findings, we have more than 125 students who've submitted their findings and abstract in order to present their research and innovation. We have research symposiums both in the spring and the summer each year where we share the students' findings, the students share their findings to our community. In addition, NCSSM has two research journals that are published showcasing student research, both abroad street scientific as well as fifth world, which showcases our great humanities research at NCSSM. So if this sounds like something of interest to you, where can you find these opportunities? Well, all four departments at NCSSM, including engineering, computer science, math, humanities, and science are all offering opportunities for students to engage in research and innovation as part of their courses, January term, and also just offered programs that are by application or registration. In addition to the departments, the mentorship and research office runs the mentorship program serving 150 students a year in the summer research and innovation program, which provides housing for almost 200 NCSSM juniors at no cost each summer. So how do you get involved? What are the next steps? Well, at this time, there's no requirements. There's no prerequisites. It's just getting excited about the opportunities. And if you're wanting to ask some questions or hear a little more, you can attend our summer info session, which is entirely optional, but will be held via Zoom on Tuesday, June 2, from seven to eight o'clock in the evening. We welcome both students and their families. And again, as there's no requirements at this time, we can guarantee that each junior will hear about the research and innovation opportunities in a required junior meeting coming up in mid September. This meeting will be followed by an optional research and innovation fair, as you can see in the image above, where students have a chance to go up to tables for every opportunity that they are interested in and talk to the instructors and the seniors who participated in those activities that year. Finally, I invite you to check out our website here on the bottom of this slide to learn more about the excellent and amazing opportunities available to you in research and innovation. Thank you, and I cannot wait to meet you.
