Ryan Caverly creates novel instructional material tied to real-world problems, establishing in-depth practical projects and incorporating hands-on experiments to engage students. He mentors numerous undergraduate researchers each year, and many of these students have published their work in journal articles and national conference proceedings. A departmental summer program he created augments undergraduate research participation by funding undergraduate students to perform research with faculty and receive mentorship from graduate students.
