Single session event

Never participated in UROP? Want to get involved, but don't know where to start? Come to the 2011 IAP UROP Expo and meet faculty, staff, and students representing UROP departments, labs, and centers across campus. The Expo provides an excellent opportunity to find out about UROP in the areas that interest you most, including Biology, Materials Science and Engineering, Mathematics, Aeronautics and Astronautics, Urban Studies and Planning, Chemistry, and Political Science.

Knowledgeable representatives from participating departments will be on hand to answer your UROP-related questions, such as:
  • When is the best time to start looking for a UROP?
  • What is the best way to approach faculty within the department?
  • What kind of experience might I need?
  • I'm interested in a specific type of research. Who in the department should I contact?
UROP students will display posters on their research, and share their UROP experiences with you. UROP staff will be on hand to answer your questions about UROP funding, research credit, and the application process. Refreshments will be served.

Eighty-seven percent of MIT students participate in UROP. Join us in Kresge Lobby, January 20, 2-4PM, and find out why!
