University of Texas at Dallas students showed their penchant for discovery during Undergraduate Research Week, which was held April 15-19 and sponsored by the Office of Undergraduate Education. “We are very fortunate to have some of the best opportunities for undergraduates to engage in research here at UT Dallas,” said Dr. Jessica C. Murphy, dean of undergraduate education and Mary McDermott Cook Chair for Undergraduate Education. Students presented their work to a panel of industry judges from Brinker International Inc., Doosan Robotics Americas, Trace3, Veritex Community Bank and Walmart Health. “In a world where things are really instantaneous, I think science is one of those things you have to learn to be patient for and let things work out. I’m very encouraged.”In addition to poster presentations, research week included a match day with more than 20 labs and 200 students, resume workshops and a panel discussion.
