The case studies will be presented within the investigation courses and additional courses of Biology for Majors and Biology for Non-Majors. Courses included within this option for investigation are: Cell Culture, Molecular Biology and Techniques, Zoology, Botany, Conservation Biology, and Plant Conservation. TCC has committed funding for course coordination following the CCURI project years, provided adequate enrollment numbers are maintained.įaculty members have committed and begun work in facilitating research investigations and subsequent case study development within the CURE goal. The students will have the opportunity to: (i) develop an individual research project within the TCC biotechnology labs for two hour credit called "Lab Sprints Plus" (ii) participate in the Tulsa Area Bioscience and Educators Research Consortium (TABERC) internship, during which students will travel to their assigned labs and complete their projects (two hour credit) (iii) complete the TCC course Biotechnology Apprenticeship credit within an area research lab (iv) continue research with another instructor through another research program. Students participating will complete the initial study and then have four options for research. The course includes an introductory 16-hour intense lab methods section (one hour credit).

The recognized collaborations are between TCC and Oklahoma State University Center for Health Sciences and Oklahoma University Tulsa.ĭuring the summer of 2012, a new credit-bearing summer research course “Lab Sprints” was developed with Dr. College goals supporting this endeavor include Achieving the Dream and Complete College America. Continued development of authentic research experiences through the CCURI team association is providing quantitative student achievement data for the purpose of providing feedback to improve courses and increase student success. “Research is Teaching” is the driving force for focus. Much history in undergrad research at TCC and student internship development through the team members includes two CUR weekend training sessions, the development of the URSA TCC team, and the TCC STEM Strategic Plan: The Student Partnership Hub. The departments involved are Biology and Biotechnology, with faculty participants from the TCC Science and Mathematics Division on the west and southeast campuses. The Tulsa Community College BURET Institute is approaching the growth of undergraduate research through Summer Undergraduate Research Experiences (SURE), Course Undergraduate Research Experiences (CURE), faculty development, and inter-institutional research articulations. The professors from TCC involved in the project include Bryan Coppedge, Patty Smith, Dusti Sloan, and project manager, Diana Spencer.
