There are several ways undergraduates can get involved in research. Students can participate as a research subject in ongoing projects to fulfill course requirements. Students can also join a lab as a research assistant either on a volunteer basis or for credit, complete an Honor’s Thesis under the guidance of a Faculty member and apply for paid Summer Research programs.
