  • Summary

    Although health science disciplines may implement an element of research in the curriculum, the primary focus has been on learning clinical practice and the creation of safe practitioners. Examples of best practice include early implementation of research in the undergraduate curriculum, scaffolding, and collaboration. In order to improve practices related to undergraduate research in the health sciences, it is important to address the needs and developments required. These needs include changing the perceptions of the value of undergraduate research for both students and faculty, finding ways to add undergraduate research to an already full and potentially overwhelming curriculum, addressing the institutional barriers that prevent undergraduate research from occurring, and reducing barriers related to faculty experience and time constraints.
