The IUPUI Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) will hold a symposium from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Friday, March 28, 2008, in the IUPUI Campus Center. The symposium is mandatory for all UROP grantees. All other undergraduate researchers at IUPUI are invited to attend and encouraged to participate.

UROP is a campuswide grants program that encourages and supports undergraduate students to work with a faculty mentor on a research or other creative project. Students who engage in undergraduate research learn through inquiry and experience with an intensity and depth not likely encountered in the classroom.

Tuesday, April 1, 2008, is the deadline for applications for the 2008 Summer UROP Fellows Program.

UROP is administered and funded by the IUPUI Center for Research and Learning.
