Mission

Our mission is to facilitate, recognize, and promote undergraduate research at Queens College. Undergraduate research is defined as any scholarly activity that makes a substantial and original intellectual contribution to a field or discipline.

Undergraduate research support comes in several forms. The Office of Undergraduate Research:

  • Provides an information clearinghouse for students and faculty to help them participate in undergraduate research experiences.
  • Offers financial support, on a competitive basis, to students and faculty engaged in undergraduate research.
  • Offers training and financial support for faculty wishing to incorporate undergraduate research in to their classes.
  • Promotes the activities of our student-scholars and faculty mentors in order to recognize them for the great work that they do.
  • Tracks the outcomes for undergraduate researchers in their careers at Queens College and beyond.
