& CREATIVE EXPERIENCES
The research proves it: Student success starts with great experiences.
Undergraduate Research
Unlike many universities, Rockhurst offers substantial research opportunities to undergraduate students.
Rockhurst University biochemistry major Paige Carroll (’21) talks about the benefits of RU’s undergraduate research and how it increases her chances of getting into medical school or eventually getting a job in the health care or science field. Here, Paige works with flies as part of a genetic mapping project of lethal mutations she started as a freshman.
