The publications and outreach activities of the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR) are designed to share successful models and strategies for establishing and institutionalizing undergraduate research programs. As CUR conducts its programs, provides services to its members, and advocates for undergraduate research at the state and national levels, numerous opportunities arise to collaborate with other professional organizations and associations who share a similar vision of the value of collaborative undergraduate research. Some of CUR's collaborative initiatives to promote this pedagogical approach are highlighted here.
