(By Shari Nelson and Sarah Sletten. UND Today) – The University of North Dakota upholds Discovery as a core value by providing support for student scholarship from initial placements through communication of findings.

The University has strategically established administrative offices and leadership positions designed to connect students with opportunities and provide continuous support throughout the research lifecycle. By strengthening the service units that provide the resources and support, UND ensures that the infrastructure exists to provide our students with meaningful experiences.

While the public focus is typically on the final presentation of findings, it is this comprehensive, institutional support system that drives the University’s commitment to Discovery.

Research is a long-standing component of medical education. While students often view research as a way to bolster residency applications, its primary value is preparing physicians for an increasingly sophisticated health care landscape.
