A sloth lies on its back on a white towel while three medical professionals examine it using a stethoscope. One person in mint green scrubs and an Airband mask listens to the animal’s chest, another in blue scrubs watches closely, and a third holds the sloth's limb steady. The scene takes place indoors with visible structural beams and equipment boxes nearby.
A portrait of three women outdoors holding large black-and-white posters depicting smiling faces in front of a street scene with palm trees, a lamp post labeled No Parking Any Time, and buildings visible in the background on an overcast day.
A large hall featuring Gothic architecture with arched windows letting in bright light. A black statue of a standing female figure dominates the foreground while several individuals sit on the floor using notebooks. Other visitors stand near historical displays in the background. The space has tall stone walls, pillars, and a polished wooden floor.

FSW’s Center for Undergraduate Research and Creativity (CURC) connects students with mentored, hands-on research and creative projects that develop practical, analytical, and professional skills. Through real-world experiences with faculty mentors, students apply their knowledge, build experience-based job skills, and prepare for their academic and career goals.
