Undergraduate Research Opportunities
Because McGill is a research-intensive university, research informs the curriculum. There are many opportunities for talented students to take part in research during their undergraduate studies, whether at McGill, in affiliated hospitals, at other universities, or in the field. Many of these are organized through formal courses or programs organized by the Faculty of Science or its departments. For more information, see the following:
- Research Project Courses
- "396" Undergraduate Research Project Courses
- Undergraduate Student Research Awards – NSERC USRA, NSERC Industrial USRA, SURA
- Undergraduate Research Conference
- Other Opportunities
- Dean's Multidisciplinary Undergraduate Research List – see description in University Regulations and Resources > Undergraduate > Graduation > Graduation Honours > Faculty of Science Dean's Multidisciplinary Undergraduate Research List
The Office for Undergraduate Research in Science (OURS) coordinates several of the aforementioned programs, and can help students find out about other opportunities. Visit the OURS website at www.mcgill.ca/science/research/ours to find out more.
Because internships and field study programs may include a research component, please also see:
