UROP’s Curiosity Lab virtual workshops are open to all undergraduates interested in exploring opportunities for experiential learning.
Purpose and Format
All workshops are hosted on Zoom and last approximately 30 minutes. Sessions are designed to support students at any stage of their undergraduate career—and with any level of experience. Each workshop begins with a brief topical presentation and follows with student-centered discussions driven by the needs of participants. Participants can register at any time, using the form linked on this page. Reminders about upcoming sessions are sent to all registered participants, who may join any topic of interest. Resources will be sent to all registered participants after each session.
What is experiential learning?
Experiential learning involves a cycle of engagement and reflection in which you learn by reflecting on the process of applying your learning, or doing. Undergraduate research and creative work is one of the many ways to engage in experiential learning on campus and beyond. Internships, community service and other activities develop skills valuable to employers from communication to time-management. These activities can also help you discover new interests and refine career plans while connecting you with supportive networks that can guide and enable.
