MIT's Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP)

For Faculty Supervisors

As a UROP faculty supervisor, mentor, and intellectual guide, you play an important role in a student's UROP experience. You will ensure that your student's project meets your department's academic standards. You are expected to be available to your undergraduate researchers, answer their questions, and treat them with respect and fairness. You are also responsible for seeing that your UROPers meet Institute and departmental safety requirements.

The information provided in this section is designed to help you in this role and to provide you with important information on safety, travel, advertising opportunities, locating funding resources and more.
