Undergraduate Research

Welcome to City Tech's Undergraduate Research Program

The goal of City Tech's undergraduate research program is to ensure that all students have access to undergraduate research opportunities. We are committed to the principle that research is a learning experience leading to deeper understanding of concepts taught in the classroom, through their application to discover new knowledge or solve societal problems. We strive to support:

  1. Undergraduates by connecting them with faculty mentors, providing professional development and opportunities to show case and celebrate their work.
  2. Faculty mentors by advertising their research interests, providing mentorship on mentoring, fund raising in order to provide additional resources, guidance on incorporation of research into the curriculum, and recognition of their contributions.
