or summer internship funding.
You need to have a research sponsor
before you can do research for credit. To obtain one, visit us here in University Heights-North
Room 031C. Next, speak with your major departmental office for info
on requirements for research credit, as each major has different requirements.
Finally, sign up with the registrar for credit.Up to three credits of undergraduate research involve approximately 9
hours of effort per week for the entire semester (3 hours per credit).
Now apply for Minigrants and Summer
Internships.
Undergraduate Research Database (CW LINK)
Students are assisted in identifying mentors
and research projects throughout the university including STEM, Humanities and Social Sciences,Business,Fine Art and Education.
The undergraduate research office maintains a data
base of UVM faculty who welcome undergraduate students to conduct research projects under their mentorship. The office will do
the work of contacting the prospective sponsor and setting up appointments for
the student to meet with several faculty members and discuss her/his research area
and what kind of project would be available. After the match between the student
and the sponsor is made, the students can sign up for an undergraduate research
course (such as BIOL 197, MMG 198, BSCI 197, etc.) or with the help of his/her
sponsor compete for mini-grants or summer internships. Up to three credits of undergraduate research involve approximately 9
hours of effort per week for the entire semester (3 hours per credit).
