Interested in the Undergraduate Research Scholars Program?



The Undergraduate Research Scholars program provides students the opportunity to participate in an independent research project under the guidance of a faculty member.  Students produce an undergraduate research thesis, present their results at a conference, and receive recognition upon completion on their transcript at graduation. 

Dr. Duncan MacKenzie, Associate Director for Undergraduate Research in the Office of Honors and Undergraduate Research, will describe the scope of the Scholars program, the procedures for applying, and the expectations for successful completion.  If you are interested in becoming an Undergraduate Research Scholar or you are a faculty member interested in mentoring a Scholar, come hear about the program and bring your questions. 

Scholars Informational Session:

      Thursday, August 30, from 6-7 pm in the Interdisciplinary Life Sciences Building (ILSB) auditorium


To qualify for the 2012-13 Undergraduate Research Scholars program, students must have completed at least 60 hours of undergraduate course work, including at least 24 credit hours at Texas A&M. Students must also have and maintain a cumulative Texas A&M GPR of 3.0 or better, be currently involved in or planning a suitable undergraduate project, and be expecting to graduate May, 2013 or later.
