We joined an initiative to engage faculty and undergraduate students in research by scheduling regular early college-level mathematics research presentations with pre- and post-lecture exercises. While our program featured six talks that were predominantly in the mathematical biosciences, the concept of creating themed topics for presentations can be extended to other areas of mathematical research, and the length of the program can also be scaled. This article discusses three of the presentations, including QR codes to access their recordings. The purpose of this article is to present the materials of the talks from this initiative and how faculty members can use the materials for potential explorations with students. The hope is the audience may use these, as presented, for study with students, with minimal start-up investment and to use this as a model for future undergraduate research efforts.
