Never participated in UROP? Want to get involved, but don't know where to start? Come to the 2013 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! 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. UROP staff will be on hand to answer your questions about the UROP proposal process, research credit, funding, and other aspects of the program.
