Our Purpose:
Case Western Reserve University has a long tradition of strong undergraduate education and outstanding research and graduate programs. SOURCE brings these strengths together.
The goal of the SOURCE office is to assist and prepare students to engage in research and creative endeavors, and to guide and, where appropriate, to supplement institutional, departmental, and divisional work with this effort. All this means that the SOURCE office is here to help students learn about UR-CE (undergraduate research and creative endeavors) and opportunities, to assist faculty members in posting opportunities, assist with funding, and to celebrate our students' accomplishments.
Case Western Reserve University has many advantages for students interested in getting involved in UR-CE. First, the graduate program is larger than the undergraduate program. This fact allows for many opportunities on faculty and doctoral student teams. Secondly, Case is located in Cleveland’s University Circle. The Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland Museum of Natural History, Cleveland Botanical Gardens and many other institutions offer numerous potential opportunities for students interested in research and creative endeavors.
