Review the list below to discover which departments have research and creative discovery opportunities embedded as part of a course. If interested in any of these courses or programs, check with your academic advisor and the program chair to ensure the course you would like is available.
Faculty Department and Topics List
If research and creative discovery is within your interest, but there are no opportunities within your field to conduct research as part of a course, you may still elect to participate in faculty-mentored research and creative discovery projects outside of class. Working toward a project outside of class, while not for course credit, can be a great résumé builder. The table below will help you find faculty who may be able to help you design and conduct research and creative discoveries outside of class.
