Undergraduate Research and Creative Achievement Day features research, scholarship, and creative work carried out by UMBC undergraduates

UMBC’s Undergraduate Research Awards provide up to $1,500 to undergraduate students to support their research or creative work with a UMBC faculty mentor on an original project. UMBC students of all years and disciplines are invited to apply, as long as they will remain enrolled at UMBC long enough to complete the proposed work.

An informal workshop on the opportunity and how to apply for an award will be held from Noon to 1:00pm on Wednesday, 26 October 2016 in Sondheim Hall 103.

You can hear about the process and doing research as an undergraduate student from current and past URA mentors Dr. Lee Blaney of the Chemical, Biochemical, and Environmental Engineering department, Dr. Carolyn Forestiere of the Political Science department and Dr. Luis Pinet-Peralta of the Health Administration and Public Policy department. At least one or two current or former URA Scholars will also be in attendance to discuss their experience in the program.
