Highlights

First Year Students: Requirements for Winter Registration PIN

All First-Year students are required to make a 25-minute appointment with their assigned academic advisor in order to receive their Registration PIN for Winter Term courses.

TRIAD Scholarship

The TRIAD Service Scholarship was established to further the goal of service as a value worthy of encouragement, acknowledgement, and reward within the OSU student community. Primary consideration will be given to undergraduates who are juniors or seniors during the 2017-2018 academic year. Evaluation will be based on undergraduate academic record (cumulative GPA, progress toward degree) and on service activities. Service includes any activities assisting organizations that provide services of value to the community. These activities may be with OSU organizations (academic, social, or student) or organizations in the local community and beyond. Although there is not a specific GPA requirement, GPA will be taken into account in evaluating the application.

For more information, please visit: TRIAD.

Health Professions Week

Health Professions Week (HPW) is next week! HPW offers students interested in a health professions career the chance to explore 21 diverse, rewarding professions through a series of FREE online and in-person events. By registering, students will have the opportunity to chat virtually with practitioners and current students about what each profession has to offer, hear a keynote address from Dr. Kameron Matthews, network in person with healthcare professionals through a Community Connect Day, and best of all, have a chance to win great prizes like one of five $1,000 education scholarships from Sallie Mae!

Annual Fall Conference: Health Reform’s Impact on Oral Health

The Oregon Oral Health Coalition (OrOHC) opens student registration for its 12th Annual Fall Conference on November 17. The $185 registration fee is discounted $120 for students, so the registration amount is $65, which includes parking and lunch. This is a great opportunity to network with health professionals in Oregon. Join to learn how the ever-evolving industry of healthcare is affecting policy, system delivery and coverage in oral health. Hear nationally known thought leaders address population health impact and innovative approaches and solutions to this new environment. Students can learn about expanding workforce career opportunities by visiting the website. Students must also register with their school email and the code STUDENT to receive the discount.

Update on URAP

The College Undergraduate Research Awards Program (URAP) will not be offered in 2017-18. The College is developing a new undergraduate research initiative for later this year.  Students involved in the program will have opportunities to explore and be exposed to faculty-mentored research. We anticipate these will be non-credit/non-stipend activities.  Stay tuned for details.
This academic year, if you would like to apply for a funded, faculty-mentored research experience, visit the OSU Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and the Arts (URSA) web page; look at the Funding Opportunities: URSA Engage and URISC and more.
