Historically, undergraduate research has not always been considered to beimportant or even practical, but in the wake of educational research showing that authentic,inquiry-based projects help students improve in math /science skills and also help students tomaintain interest in science fields, many broad-based funding agencies such as the NationalScience Foundation (NSF) and National Atmospheric and Space Agency (NASA) have found itgermane to fund programs aimed at starting intervention at earlier stages in students’ education.
