Research Opportunities
Undergraduate Research Day is held every April. This event is proudly sponsored by the Office of Undergraduate Studies and the Maryland Libraries.
University of Maryland undergraduates participate in various research opportunities and Undergraduate Research Day provides the perfect opportunity for them to share their work with the campus community. Held each April, Undergraduate Research Day showcases current research, scholarship, and artistic endeavors. Presentations, posters, and performances are open to the public. Any work conducted as a part of a campus course, internship, or program is eligible for presentation.
We ask that students, faculty, and administrators contact us at ugresearch@umd.edu with any questions.
