University Undergraduate Research Committee

The Undergraduate Research Committee
funds high quality undergraduate student research projects -
projects too small to effectively compete for major external
grants, but none the less heuristic!
A very good cause!

Club
of Kutztown University
(faculty advisor)
Geology Club brings together students with a common
interest in the science of Earth processes by organizing
experiential learning activities such as hikes, field trips, and
picnics. We also seek to promote Earth sciences with
pre-college young people and contribute positively to the
greater community through philanthropic service.
