Lamborn-Hughes Institute

August 5-7, 2025 | Colorado |CSU

The Lamborn-Hughes Institute (LHI), hosted by the Association for Undergraduate Education at Research Universities (UERU), is a three-day gathering of teams at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, Colorado. The Institute is dedicated to the proposition that superior undergraduate education and student success require innovative student-centered approaches and collaborative partnerships across units. 

Lamborn-Hughes Institute teams engage in immersive study and discussion, benefit from structured networking between institutions, and gain insights from plenary sessions, all with the support of experienced LHI faculty.

 

Fall 2025 UVP Meeting

October 21-23, 2025 | Texas |UTSA

The Association for Undergraduate Education at Research Universities (UERU) holds Undergraduate Vice Provost/President (UVP) Meetings twice a year at member institutions across the country. In the Fall of 2025, it will be held in Texas and co-hosted by the University of Texas at San Antonio. 

These meetings provide UERU leaders with opportunities for in-person engagement and often feature specialized colloquia. The UVP Meetings foster collaboration and address critical challenges in undergraduate education, promoting diversity, inclusion, student success, and innovative practices. Participation is restricted to UVPs, their designees, and/or one additional senior-level colleague.

Launching UERU's Undergraduate STEM Education Community

Tuesday, June 24, 2025 | 2:00pm ET | Zoom

You're invited to the virtual launch of UERU's Undergraduate STEM Education Implementation Community!
 
All interested UERU members are welcome to attend. This community will convene university leaders, STEM deans/department chairs, and STEM education experts from leading research institutions in service of implementing the UERU-inspired National Academies consensus committee report on Transforming Undergraduate STEM Education. Our goals for this community are to celebrate research university leadership in undergraduate STEM, spur further progress among participating institutions, and set a standard for the good of higher education.
 
During this meeting, you’ll have a chance to meet fellow STEM education leaders from peer research universities and learn about the community's structure, expectations, and goals. We’ll also welcome the co-leads of this community, Dr. Cassandra Volpe Horii (Stanford University) and Dr. Michael Palmer (University of Virginia), who will chair future meetings and lend their expertise to the process of advancing cross-campus change.
 
Don’t forget to save the date for our UERU National Conference next January 21-22, 2026, which will again be co-located with AAC&U in Washington DC. We anticipate creating space for several panels on UG STEM as well as other dedicated time for engaging with your colleagues. The call for participants will be available by July 1. 
 
We are looking forward to seeing UERU make real, substantive progress in this area and, we anticipate, setting a new, higher standard for undergraduate STEM education at research universities. We hope you can join us. Please feel free to share this message with others on your campus who may be interested in attending.
