Collins College of Business Tulsa Undergraduate Research Challenge

The Tulsa Undergraduate Research Challenge (TURC) program emphasizes undergraduate research, academics, leadership, and community involvement. The TURC Program offers highly motivated students with the opportunity to increase their research skills while expanding knowledge in an area of student interest. The program also offers students unique opportunities for personal development while preparing students for a life of community involvement and for pursuing internationally competitive fellowships and scholarships.

The centerpiece of the program is research and students pursue research in areas of mutual interest with their faculty advisors.  Each TURC student works closely with their faculty advisor who mentors as well as monitors his or her progress. The goals of such research may be to deliver papers at academic conferences, to produce publishable articles, or to initiate meaningful business or community projects.

To participate in the TURC program, a student must be highly motivated, have a specific research area of interest and be paired with a faculty advisor. The College supports the TURC program and college faculty members are available to serve as student advisors. 

Students who are interested in participating in the TURC program and want to pursue research in a business related area are encouraged to contact Tim Urban, Collins College of Business TURC Coordinator or Nona Charleston, TURC University Administrator.
