The Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP)
is designed to match Washington University undergraduates with available
research positions in the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. Doing research
as an undergraduate is a good way to learn an area in depth and to get to
know a faculty member well. It can also help you decide whether to go to
graduate school, and give you an edge in graduate school admissions or
employment opportunities.
It's very easy to get involved. Browse the UROP listings
on this website.
Some projects are offered for academic credit, others for pay, and some for either pay or credit.
If you see projects
that interest you, contact the faculty members listed to find
out more. Even if you don't have time for research this semester,
you may want to plan now for a future one.
Keep in mind that not all research projects
are listed here. If your research interests don't happen to
be represented in these listings, consult the Department of Computer Science and Engineering web site
for a listing of faculty and their research interests, and contact those
faculty with interests similar to yours.
If you work on a project for credit, register
for CS400 Independent Study. Or, if you are completing a project
and writing an undergraduate thesis, register for
CS499. Both require a brief proposal to be completed in advance.
