Program Description:
The Undergraduate Research Opportunity Program (UROP) seeks to cultivate research partnerships between SJSU faculty and undergraduate students who are first-time frosh and transfers, and 2nd year students. UROP aims to integrate students into university life academically and socially and providing students with structured support from peers, mentors, and faculty. Students who participate in UROP will have the opportunity to work directly with SJSU faculty on their research and scholarly projects.

Benefits of the program include (but are not limited to):
- Cultivate research skills based on your interests
- Engage in enriching experiences with peers
- Expand skill-set for your resume
- End of the year Research Symposium
