Research/Career Opportunities



	Participating in an internship or research program is an excellent way to explore your interests in biology, ecology, and evolutionary biology. In general, most undergraduate research and internship opportunities are posted in the fall with application deadlines in January or February for the following summer. Please note that this is a modest list, and an excellent source of information is available through the University of Michigan Career Center: http://careercenter.umich.edu. Scroll down for research opportunities with our faculty. Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) UROP creates research partnerships between first and second year students and University of Michigan faculty. All schools and colleges of the University of Michigan are active participants in UROP, thereby providing a wealth of research topics from which a student can choose. Begun in 1989 with 14 student/faculty partnerships the program continues to grow, offering more first and second year students the opportunity to be part of an exciting research community. Today, approximately 900 students and over 600 faculty researchers are engaged in research partnerships.
