Undergraduate / Research OpportunitiesPeer Advising in Research
The Peer Advising in Research program educates highly motivated McCormick undergraduates about research opportunities and forges a community of students bound by a passion for scientific research.
This program connects you with current undergraduate researchers in your department. By talking one-on-one with these experienced peer advisers, you will be able to better understand the realities and goals of various research groups.
Ultimately, they can assist you in finding the right research opportunities for your qualifications and interests.
