UNIBusiness' Undergraduate Research Program (URP) encourages students to conduct and present research projects under faculty supervision. Students selected for the program receive a $750 stipend. Modest funding is also available for research-related expenses, such as supplies and travel; as well as additional travel support should their research be presented at a conference.
Students typically apply for an URP Award in September, conduct their research during the academic year, and present their research to faculty and students at the URP Seminar in April. Some students also present their research at an academic conference or submit their research for publication.
