Opportunities & Eligibility
Students may apply to three opportunities that support different types of research engagement.
In addition to the skills and knowledge gained through faculty mentorship throughout the research experience, students will also participate in a scholar's network and professional development activities where they can connect with other student researchers, build skills, and share their experiences.
- Increase the number of undergraduate students actively engaged in research
- Provide undergraduate students with an enriched opportunity to develop transferable skills beyond the classroom
- Create an inclusive environment where students have the opportunity to connect with others engaged in research, develop appreciation for diverse approaches to research, and acquire skills and knowledge so that they feel comfortable within research and knowledge translation environments
- Develop specialized research & communication skills.
- Document your learning through RSD credit.
- Expand your network by connecting with students, professors, and others working in research spaces
- Collaborate with a professor on a project to gain in-depth knowledge in your area of interest
- Try out research to see if graduate studies or a research-related career appeals to you.
Calls for the RA programs will be sent in March (for Summer) and September (for Fall-Winter). Watch your email for more info, including application forms and deadlines.
