Broadening Participation in CS Research with Scalable Undergraduate Research Mini-Projects

Year: 2025

Type: conference-paper

Abstract: Undergraduate research experiences have been shown to increase student retention rates in STEM pathways, with a notable impact on students from Historically Underrepresented Groups (HUGs). However, undergraduate research experiences are often inaccessible to students, particularly in high-demand research areas and at large institutions with low faculty-to-student ratios.
