Undergraduate Research Directors

The Undergraduate Research Initiative, made possible by the Florida High Tech Corridor, supports meaningful research experiences for USF undergraduate ÅÝܽÊÓƵapps. Each USF college may request up to $10,000 from the Florida High Tech Corridor to provide new and expanded research opportunities for their undergraduate ÅÝܽÊÓƵapps. This program is intentionally flexible, allowing each college to design a program that best serves their ÅÝܽÊÓƵapps and existing administrative structures, from scholarships focused on community-engaged research to paid summer research opportunities.
