Research at an undergraduate institution is a challenge. At the Oklahoma School of Science and Mathematics, ( a statewide magnet High School) we teach ACS standard undergraduate courses such as Biochemistry, Organic chemistry, and Physical Chemistry including laboratories. In this residential setting, we have been able to establish research opportunities for our students with a reasonable success by securing grant money and commissioning spectroscopic instruments. The author will present some descriptions of student research, with relevant publications. Examples will be shared to describe how these research opportunities give the student to think outside of the box to discover something unusual and new !!!
