Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program

Welcome to the UROP Homepage!

The Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP) creates research partnerships between University of Michigan-Flint faculty and students. UROP encourages and facilitates research and creative activities by undergraduates representing all academic disciplines. In addition to gaining valuable research experience, student participants will have the option to earn paid wages, utilize work study or earn volunteer points. It is our hope that this experience will provide students with the necessary skills to succeed throughout their academic careers while assisting faculty expedite their research.

Mission

The mission of the Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP) at the U of M-Flint is to enrich the academic experience of undergraduate students while providing valuable assistance to faculty researchers. Additionally, our program is intended to lend support – training, mediation, and otherwise – to both the faculty researcher and the student throughout the life of the project.
