Connecting the World through Undergraduate Research
Maher Khelifa
Scholarship and Practice of Undergraduate Research, v7 n3 p12-16 2024
Spreading the value of undergraduate research globally is the main aim of the nascent Alliance for Global Undergraduate Research (AGUR) and its hallmark conference, the World Congress on Undergraduate Research (WorldCUR). This commentary highlights the historical development of AGUR, WorldCUR, their mission, main objectives, impact, and the "Doha Declaration," a partnership framework for the "Internationalization" of undergraduate research. Recognizing the benefits of student research engagement, AGUR and WorldCUR strive to extend these formative experiences to the largest number of students around the globe. WorldCUR has so far positioned AGUR to connect the world through undergraduate research, bringing together student researchers from around the world to tackle the most significant challenges the world faces and to engage in scientific dialogues for knowledge production and sharing.
