| Office of Undergraduate Research |
Studies have shown that incorporating experiential learning into the undergraduate academic journey can have very positive ramifications as the students test and experience their chosen professions by becoming immersed in research. UT has many different research programs and opportunities funded through the Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR-UT) and others. Research is an integral part of every discipline and UT faculty have been supportive of engaging undergraduate students in their research programs. |

The University of Toledo policy web site is a compilation of relevant policy, operational procedures and governing documents of The University of Toledo. The purpose of the policy web site is to ensure faculty, staff, and students have ready access to the policies. |

| Expert Database | The University of Toledo Expertise Database (UTED) is a searchable electronic database that provides information regarding the research expertise, interests and/or skill sets of colleagues within UT. UTED was developed as a collaboration of the Jacobson Center for Clinical & Translational Research, Information Technology, and the Center for Creative Instruction to facilitate development of partnerships and interdisciplinary collaboration among our scientific community. It will therefore also provide a mechanism to identify appropriate individuals within UT for potential interactions with business, industry, government, and media representatives. |

Erie region. The UT Press will read and consider for publication manuscripts that
investigate, highlight, and celebrate the unique identity of our region’s communities,
institutions, and individuals. It will consider scholarly and general nonfiction,
fiction, photography or poetry manuscripts. It will also consider manuscripts by writers
with a biographical connection to the region. |
