Undergraduate Research
Many undergraduate students choose to conduct research while at Boston University. Students are encouraged to pursue research at an undergraduate level and can do so in several ways:
- Beginning sophomore year, students can conduct Research for Credit. Research for credit takes place during the regular semester and can be done for either 2 or 4 credits.
- Seniors who meet the GPA requirements can conduct research as part of an Honors Thesis Application. The Honors Thesis requires a full 8 credits of research.
- All students have the option of pursuing research through the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP)
For students interested in conducting research for credit, or honors research, please complete the forms linked above. Completed applications or questions can be directed to BUMP Program Manager, Julia Hammer Mendez at hammer@bu.edu.
