Throughout the year, Bass Connections, in partnership with campus partners and the Office of Undergraduate Research Support, will offer research modules designed to provide students (undergraduate and graduate) with foundational knowledge in research practices. These sessions are open to all Duke students, staff and faculty (you do not have to be a member of a Bass Connections team to participate).
