New Initiatives

In 2023-24, the Undergraduate Research Initiative will fund ten programs in nine colleges, including three new initiatives:

College of the Arts 鈥 Field based Research Assistantships in Entertainment Design & Technology
Students will conduct research field work in Entertainment Design using cutting edge design technology like 3D rendering, drafting, projection and lighting software, 3D printers, laser cutters and AI generated art. Students will assist a designated Design faculty mentor for at least three months on an external professional design job or an intensive position on a 新澳门六合彩内幕信息production.

College of Marine Science 鈥 Collaborative Oceanographic Research Experience II with Hydrography Focus (USFCMS-CORE2-Hydro)
The College's will build off previous successful student research efforts to host the Collaborative Oceanographic Research Experience 2 (CORE2-Hydro) with a focus on Hydrography 鈥 surveying of oceans and bodies of water. This undergraduate experiential learning concept will include semester-long projects exposing students to science communication, fieldwork planning & preparation, data analysis, and oceanic equipment maintenance, design, and use and will culminate in a 4-day research cruise. 

College of Public Health 鈥 COPH Connect to Success: A Program to Facilitate Research Mentorship among Undergraduate Students
This program provides ten paid undergraduate research opportunities for public health and health sciences students. They will work directly with faculty on current projects, gaining valuable research experience that might not be accessible to them if these opportunities were unpaid.  Potential deliverables might include conference abstracts, manuscripts, community reports and presentations.

Office of High Impact Practices and Undergraduate Research 鈥 Summer Academy for Investigative Learning (SAIL)
The Summer Academy for Investigative Learning (SAIL) will introduce undergraduate participants to the profound significance of research in our ever-evolving society, challenge them to confront local and global issues, and empower them to actively engage in research endeavors at 新澳门六合彩内幕信息and beyond. 

Recurring Initiatives 

College of Arts & Sciences 鈥 Undergraduate Research Fellowships in Building a Sustainable World

College of Behavioral & Community Sciences 鈥 Corridor Undergraduate Research Initiative
The College of Behavioral and Community Sciences will expand two existing programs that currently support undergraduate research. The first is the NIDA-funded Summer Research Institute program, designed for undergraduate students interested in building their research skills within the context of substance use and co-occurring disorders. The second is the Undergraduate Research Scholarship program that allows students to conduct guided research projects with a faculty mentor.

College of Engineering 鈥 Keep the Momentum Going: Highest Number of REU Students in College鈥檚 History
The College鈥檚 Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) program aims to give undergraduate students an opportunity to participate directly in research efforts as research assistants with professors and graduate students on a variety of exciting and interdisciplinary research projects. Corridor funds will be used to increase participation in this sought after program.  

Judy Genshaft Honors College 鈥 Undergraduate Research Portal Enhancement   
The student research team will to continue developing the Undergraduate Research Portal's features to enhance its value for faculty, staff, and students. The portal, launched with funds from last year鈥檚 Corridor program, allows students to be quickly matched to research opportunities at USF.

College of Nursing 鈥 Biobehavioral Research Laboratory: Expanding Undergraduate Research and Leadership
This funding will expand the College of Nursing's existing undergraduate volunteer program to provide paid opportunities for interested students to continue participating in the lab's research and act as trainers and mentors for incoming volunteers, continue to work on projects in the lab, and to develop and validate new research protocols for small volume samples.
