Undergraduate education at the University of Oregon occurs in an environment where teaching, research, and service are integrated and mutually enriching enterprises. Whatever the field of study, UO students have opportunities to engage in significant original academic research, scholarship, and creative expression.

As indicated by the title, this list is intended to be inclusive of the natural sciences, social sciences, humanities, professional communities of practice, and the arts.

UO Students: If you are looking for undergraduate research opportunities, please discuss your interests with a faculty mentor, your major department's director of undergraduate studies, or the Office of Academic Advising

UO Faculty: If you are aware of other programs and opportunities, please let us know and we will add them to the list.
