The Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR)
hosts a Registry of Undergraduate Researchers. The purpose of this
registry is to facilitate matchmaking between undergraduates who have research
experience and a desire to pursue an advanced degree, with graduate schools
seeking high quality students who are well prepared for research. The
Registry is open to students and graduate schools in the fields of
Anthropology/Archaeology, Arts/Humanities, Biology/Biochemistry, Business,
Chemistry/Biochemistry, Economics, Education, Engineering, English and
Linguistics, Environmental Studies, Geosciences, Health Professions, History,
Journalism and Communications, Mathematics/Computer Science, Physics/
Astronomy, Political Science, Psychology, Social Work and Sociology.
Any undergraduate may go to http://www.cur.org/projects_and_services/registry/student_register/ to fill out a simple curriculum vitae form. There is no charge to the student and records will be made available to bona fide Graduate Schools or research programs that contract with CUR for this service. Organizations or companies seeking the students’ information for other marketing purposes will not be granted access. Graduate School representatives may contact students to invite applications or visits to the campus and laboratory, or to share information about their research programs and financial support opportunities.

Graduate schools provide a link to their
websites, and provide a short description of opportunities, such as research
fields and fellowships.
I hope that students who are currently in
their junior year will register now, but anyone with undergraduate research
experience may register at any time. You will be able to update your
listing as appropriate, to include any summer research experience or
information about Senior Theses and test scores.
CUR believes that this service will be a
great benefit for both students and graduate schools by narrowing the search
for the right match. So if you are interested in graduate school, please
take a moment to register now. Be sure to include a statement of your
research interests, as this will be important for making the match.
Please feel free to contact me, should you
have any questions.
