Congratulations to the following students who were scholarship winners of the CUR Engineering Division Video Competition! Engineering students who presented their research at NCUR (or were accepted to present in the case of 2020) were invited to submit a video to share information about their research, why their research is important to them, and what the experience has meant to them. Winning videos were selected by the Engineering Division.  When available, videos can be viewed by selecting the student’s name.
