04/05/11Interested in doing cutting-edge research in an area of philosophy? The Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) makes this possible. UROP provides grants of up to $1,700 for undergraduate students either to carry out a project of the student's own design in close collaboration with a faculty sponsor or work with a faculty member on her/his scholarly or creative project. In the process you develop a detailed knowledge of research methods while the faculty sponsors gain the assistance of enthusiastic and capable students.
