Abstract	Computational thinking and activity are vital aspects of what it means to conduct scientific and mathematical work. In light of this, some propose that students' mathematical education should include an integration of computing into their mathematical experiences, giving students opportunities to engage with computational tools as they reason about mathematical concepts. In this commentary, we make a case that the international RUME community should focus on studying the integration of computing in research in undergraduate mathematics education. We situate this discussion within existing literature. Then, we suggest ways in which researchers can incorporate ideas related to computing, and we propose ideas for how investigations into computing might practically be incorporated into our already-existing research foci. Ultimately, we hope to motivate other members of the RUME community to join us in what we consider to be a timely and exciting endeavor. (As Provided).
