  Office of Undergraduate Research

 Who are we?

We’re here to connect APSU undergraduates with opportunities to conduct research and creative activity. From the application process, to pursuing funding and presenting your findings, we’re here to help you every step of the way. You can even apply to receive OUR funding for your project!

What is research and creative activity?

When you hear the word “research,” you might think of lab coats and microscopes – but that’s not the only kind of research!  Research and creative activity are common in ALL fields of study. Here are a few examples of projects we’ve supported:

• Study of alcohol addiction in rats
• Choreography and direction of a full-length ballet
• Production of a documentary film about Dorthea Dix
• Field research on amphibian viruses

How will you benefit?

Your research project will help you connect with faculty, become immersed in a field of study and gain confidence in your abilities. As you near graduation, you’ll find it draws a lot of attention – from employers and graduate schools.

Interested?

If you’re ready to ask questions, explore solutions, and find answers,
the OFFICE OF UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH can help you make it happen.

Research isn't just for professors and graduate students.  Click on the For Students tab on the left menu to learn more!

"Research is formalized curiosity. It is poking and prying with a purpose."
