*UGR definition modified from:  Wenzel, T. J., “What is Undergraduate Research?,” Council on Undergraduate Research Quarterly, 1997, 17, 163.

Eric Rosch, Ph.D., a lecturer in Coastal Carolina University's Marine Science program, guides undergraduates as they perform research. Here, he talks about how unique it is for undergrads to be able to lead their own research projects and notes the value of Waties Island as a resource for the students. Waties Island is partially owned by CCU.
