| dc.description.abstract | [EN] Vertically Integrated Projects (VIPs) are a novel method to embed problem-based research education in the curriculum in higher education. Students become part of student and staff research teams working on long-term research projects led by University Principal Investigators. The aim of this paper is to provide a description of how VIPs have been developed at the University of Galway and to explore student experiences of participation. Two semi-structured focus groups were conducted with nineteen undergraduate students who had completed their first VIP module. Interviews were transcribed verbatim and analyzed to identify key themes. Four key themes were developed: Increased understanding and awareness of research skills, approaches and resources; enhanced communication skills; improved organizational and project management skills; and becoming more “work ready”. This study demonstrates the value of VIP in enhancing research knowledge and skills and supporting students to develop broader skills that are transferrable to their future careers. | es_ES |
