MMUF Program Participants

The University of Texas at Austin has a significant amount of information, opportunities and organizations focused on undergraduate research. Here in the College of Liberal Arts (CoLA), we aim to bring those resources together to help unlock your research journey, as well as open up additional avenues of opportunity.

We're here to help you think big (or even bigger). If you're interested in pursuing or just hearing more about research, and what could be out there for you, or you're wondering where to start, or already involved in research in some way and looking to elevate that involvement, you're in the right place.

Undergraduate research lives here.

Why get involved in Research?

  • Students who engage in research as undergraduates gain insight into the professional world, enhance their knowledge base and critical thinking skills, and better prepare themselves for graduate school.
  • Research is a hands-on method to learn new ways to solve problems and thoroughly explore different subject areas.
  • With faculty mentors, students receive guidance on research methods, resources, and issues common in different fields.
