Undergraduate Research Opportunities
There are numerous opportunities for students interested in
doing undergraduate research. Some are listed below, but there
may be additional faculty members with grants to support undergraduate
research. Contact the faculty members you may be considering to
see if they have funding available.
Scholarships, Grants, and
Other Opportunities:
- For Credit - Chemistry 295 and 495 - Perform
chemical research for credit that will count toward your degree.
Sign up when you register and talk to faculty members to decide
on a project.
- McNair Scholars - The McNair Scholars Program is for "1st generation,"
low-income students or from groups under-represented in doctoral
studies. The program is designed to prepare students intending
to go to graduate school for the application process and to give
them an idea of what to expect once they get there.
- Collaborative Research Scholarly and Creative Activity
Program - Collaborative RSCA funds have been available
to fund student research the past two years and may be available
in upcoming years. Students write a proposal with the assistance
of the professor they wish to have supervise their work and submit
it to the Faculty/Academic Staff Development Board (FASDB).
- UWRF Faculty Research Grants - Several members of
our faculty have received these grants in recent years. These
grants provide funding for student salaries and supplies.
- External Research Grants - Faculty members within
the department also apply for external funding. Currently Dr.
Lisa Kroutil has funding for student salaries for the summer
of 2001 from Research Corporation, please see her if you are
interested.
