Undergraduate Research Programs
If you are interested in gaining research experience, ask your faculty mentor for advice or check out your department's webpage to learn about each faculty member's area of expertise, and to discover research opportunities within your department. If you are interested in a particular research area, talk with your professors about the possibility of finding research opportunities during the academic year and during the summer. ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø also has the Blazer Summer Research Institute, a competitive summer program for students to work with faculty on research projects.
ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø student researchers have even been recognized by being co-authors with their faculty mentors in peer-reviewed journals, and all students have the opportunity to showcase their research, scholarship, and creative activities to the ºÚ¹Ï³ÔÁÏÍø community at the Undergraduate Research Symposium. This event has grown tremendously and has proven popular with students and faculty. Cash prizes are awarded to student researchers selected by the judging committee.
