CRE Student Spotlights

As a major research university, Florida State offers students the distinct opportunity to participate in undergraduate research with world-class faculty. The students featured here all participated in programs facilitated by the Center for Undergraduate Research and Academic Engagement (CRE), but as you will see, many of them were also highly involved with other offices and programs on campus, especially the University Honors Program and the Office of National Fellowships.

We hope that recent alumni who feel that undergraduate research was a stepping stone to their current success will nominate themselves here for inclusion on this page, and students already featured here can also email Latika Young, Director of the Center for Undergraduate Research and Academic Engagement (CRE), at llyoung@fsu.edu to update the information displayed here.
