The Center for Undergraduate Research and Academic Engagement (CRE) is recruiting project proposals for the 2025-2026 academic year from faculty, postdoctoral scholars, graduate students, and campus partners from all academic disciplines for our Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP) students.
Learn more about how to become a UROP Research Mentor and help FSU students get experience in their field by looking over our website or joining one of the hybrid UROP Research Mentor Information Sessions.
Tuesday, May 20, 10-11 AM
Thursday, June 12, 3-4 PM
Wednesday, July 16, 2:30-3:30 PM
Thursday, August 14, 10:30-11:30 AM
As UROP Research Mentors, faculty, postdoctoral scholars, and graduate students are eligible to apply for UROP materials grant funding and may be nominated for an Undergraduate Research Mentor Award.
Links to previous UROP projects are in the UROP Project Portal (linked below).
UROP Project Proposal deadline: August 18, 2025
UROP Project Portal: https://cre.fsu.edu/urop-research-mentor-project-submission-portal
Please remember, UROP is year-long experience, culminating with the UROP students presenting at the campus-wide Undergraduate Research Symposium in late spring. Feel free to look over the Undergraduate Research Symposium program here: https://cre.fsu.edu/research-symposium-group-view. By posting a project to the portal, there is no obligation to accept a UROP student if you do not find a good match. You will have the chance to meet with students during the Research Mentor Roundtable event in early fall, as well as interview any potential students at your convenience over the first month of the fall semester, before compacts are signed with students by Oct. 7th. Typically, UROP students work 5-10 hours per week as a Research Assistant, though the specific schedule, tasks, and expectations will be confirmed when signing the compact.
You can contact CRE Senior Associate Director, Alicia Batailles, with any questions you might have at alicia.batailles@fsu.edu. |
