The mission of The Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR) is to support and promote high-quality undergraduate student-faculty collaborative research and scholarship in all disciplines, including the social sciences, arts, and humanities. Individual members receive numerous benefits, including an electronic subscription to the CUR Quarterly; access to information on funding opportunities and other resources, including support for student travel to meetings; majors discounts to attend CUR conferences, dialogues, and workshops; free access to CUR hosted webinars; and mentoring or pre-submission proposal reviews from colleagues in the discipline. Individual membership in CUR is available at no cost to CU Denver and CU AMC faculty, staff, and students under our Enhanced Institutional Membership, which was made possible by the Office of Research and the Office of Undergraduate Experiences. To register for individual membership under our enhanced institutional membership, simply complete the "Individual Online Application" under "Become a Member" in the drop-down "Membership" menu at www.cur.org. To avoid being charged, select "University of Colorado Denver" under the "Select Institution" drop-down menu. For more information about CUR, visit www.cur.org.
Canvas Outage
Canvas access has been restored for our users, but the service reliability remains uncertain. Due to recent events, Canvas has had intermittent outages which are at the discretion of the vendor and may occur during a final exam. Faculty and staff may continue to use Canvas, but we strongly advise faculty and students to prepare a contingency plan for turning in assignments and final exams in the event Canvas access becomes unavailable again.
Instructure, the company that owns Canvas, has provided an FAQ about the incident, which may not answer all your questions. We will share more information if it becomes available.
