Undergraduate Research
Undergraduate Research Directors
The Undergraduate Research Initiative, made possible by the °®ÎÛ´«Ã½ High Tech Corridor, supports meaningful research experiences for USF undergraduate students. Each USF college may request up to $10,000 from the °®ÎÛ´«Ã½ High Tech Corridor to provide new and expanded research opportunities for their undergraduate students. This program is intentionally flexible, allowing each college to design a program that best serves their students and existing administrative structures, from scholarships focused on community-engaged research to paid summer research opportunities.
