The College's Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP) is the nation's foremost program offering undergraduate students the opportunity to work alongside faculty researchers and to engage them in discovery-based learning from their earliest days on campus. UROP introduces new students to the intellectual excitement of discovery and fosters important skills endemic to the discipline of research. The program builds a sense of community for students within the larger academic world and serves as a base for their future intellectual and emotional development.

Michigan is ranked #1 nationally by USNWR for its Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP). UROP provides research partnerships between more than 900 first-year students and over 600 faculty, in almost every discipline in the natural sciences, social sciences, and humanities. Student researchers can work in every college, including the medical school.

You may also participate in the Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program within several science departments. Or, just talk to your faculty member about their research and opportunities available to work with them. Michigan has the largest research budget in the world, so come prepared to take part in this integral part of university life.
