Undergraduate Research Program
The Undergraduate Research Program (URP) facilitates research experiences for students in all academic disciplines through advising, research programs, and other research-related resources. URP works to expand research opportunities for undergraduates by supporting faculty and academic departments to integrate undergraduate research into their curricula and programs, and provides public events for students to present their scholarly work.
