UNC Research is shaping North Carolina’s legacy. @UNCChapelHill inspires and trains the next generation of leaders for our state, from kindergarten to college. This starts with the NC Science Festival each spring, which hosts over 500 science education events across the state to engage youth in the magic of science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM). #UNC’s Shadow a Scientist program offers local high school students a day-long visit to Carolina labs, connecting them with researchers to provide a unique real-world experience. At the college level, 81% of UNC-Chapel Hill’s undergraduate students are from North Carolina. That’s nearly 17,000 students, all of whom will engage in research during their time here. Research equips undergraduates with essential skills, from problem solving to project planning to collaboration to data collection and analysis. These abilities will serve them well as they transition into the professional arena and build North Carolina’s workforce. #UNCResearchisNC

This is the impact of @uncresearch. Carolina is a world-class research university where great ideas turn into outcomes that improve the quality of life for all people. In Student Affairs, research helps shape how we meet student needs, foster belonging, and support well-being. Our work also fuels North Carolina’s economy, supporting businesses, meeting community needs and caring for our citizens. We train future leaders with hands-on learning experiential opportunities in labs and field sites across the state and globe. The University’s research serves North Carolina, the nation and beyond. #UNCResearchisNC

Real-world experience. Real impact.🩵 Rylee Li '23 (MS '24) didn’t expect her internship report to make waves but it’s already shaping how Carolina supports violence prevention. Guided by Elizabeth Sager (MPH '16), her work at the North Carolina Coalition Against Domestic Violence (@nccoalitionadv) is now informing campus programs and community partnerships at Carolina. ⁣ “Students contribute in so many different and impactful ways.” ⁣ @uncvpas provides confidential support and services to the Carolina community.
