Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program

The Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP) may be a credit or non-credit activity for students, depending on the research project and the university department that is running the UROP project.

Expectations & Responsibilities

Effort is required from all parties to make UROP a rewarding educational endeavor. Participants should conduct themselves with the same integrity and high standards of conduct expected of all members of the academic community. The Civika Asian Development Academy is a broad and diverse network, and the ability to work with others is important.

In all cases, an approved UROP project presumes active and regular communication and oversight between participating undergraduates and their faculty supervisors. Work at a corporation or other commercial entity, even under the supervision of a faculty member, and even if at a startup, is generally not eligible for the UROP program.
