STEM Undergraduate Experience
Graduate students and postdoctoral fellows are not the only people doing research at the School. Undergraduates can also get involved in one of three ways: the College of Science’s Scientific Research Initiative (SRI) which places incoming freshman into a lab; through the Undergraduate Research Mentoring program; and by contacting professors directly for opportunities to participate in discovery-based research.
If you are interested in which labs are actively seeking students, take a look at the google sheet. This list may not be extensive, so please reach out if you are interested in specific labs or research areas and a mentor would be happy to help you!
