Preparing Undergraduates for Research in Stem-related Fields Using Electrophysiology

PURSUE is a collaborative initiative to facilitate the training of undergraduates in cognitive electrophysiology. To achieve this goal, the PURSUE team has set out the following objectives:

1.

To work with faculty from primarily undergraduate institutions across the country to create engaging, evidence-based educational materials with instructional support that can be used flexibly in a variety of classroom settings. After initial testing and revision, these materials will be freely available for download on this website. Through faculty implementation and feedback, we hope to continue the cycle of innovation to test and revise the materials.

2.

To create a faculty-learning community and social network that will provide support and encouragement for faculty at primarily undergraduate institutions who wish to involve undergraduates in cognitive electrophysiology to teach and conduct research on brain-behavior relationships.
