Undergraduate Research Program

The Undergraduate Research Program funds research projects for students during the summer or for an academic semester. To apply for a URP, a student must have a faculty mentor who will oversee the student's research project. URPs can also provide helpful funding to students who are completing a senior thesis.  ALL disciplines are welcome, including all areas of the creative arts and the humanities.


Amount of Award:
Amounts vary based on the URP committee's assessment. Summer awards often cover summer housing.

Application Deadline:  5pm on March 16, 2011 for Summer 2011 grants
Applications are now available in Academic Services (Usdan 130) and by emailing Meredith Monaghan at monaghan@brandeis.edu.
