Undergraduate research has been shown to increase student retention and achievement. Many people think that research primarily happens in STEM fields, but what about non-STEM topics? Students interested in the arts and humanities, too, can benefit from undergraduate research experiences as much as STEM students! Dr. Tricia Meredith, Director of Research at FAU Lab Schools, heard our students' needs and created opportunities for my guests here today and many who have followed in the path they forged. Two are currently in the program; Jaimie Yap, 17, a senior, will graduate from FAU with a degree in Biochemistry in the spring of 2024. Asna Nayani is a junior in high school and college with a double major in political science and sociology and is the president of the University's Undergraduate Law Journal. Caralin Branscum, who just turned 24, started at FAUHS in 2013 as a 9th grader; she graduated from FAUHS in 2017 with B.A. in Criminology/Criminal Justice & Sociology in 2018 M.S. in Criminology and Criminal Justice 2019. Then started in a doctoral program in 2020. She is a third-year doctoral student in the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. These three students have all conducted research in their major fields, making exciting and essential discoveries and opening doors to new professional opportunities.
