Undergraduate Opportunities
Research Experience for Undergraduates
Kansas NSF EPSCoR leads an immersive Research Experiences for Undergraduates (REU) program each summer. Students conduct research at one of three universities in Kansas to explore Equitable Pathways to Community Disaster Resilience.
Kansas Data Science Consortium
Launched in 2022 by Kansas NSF EPSCoR, KDSC drives both workforce and economic development. Businesses, nonprofits, and other organizations partner share data for class projects, linking learners and employers across the state.
LSAMP Connections
LSAMP is short for the Louis Stokes Alliance for Minority Participation. We leverage two of these programs, including the Kansas LSAMP program led by Kansas State University and the ASTER program led by the University of Kansas. Both programs have partnerships with other colleges to promote the success of undergraduates from groups underrepresented in science, technology, engineering, and math.
Other Undergrad Opportunities
We leverage the Developing Scholars program at Kansas State University by expanding its reach to be able to provide research experiences for more first-generation and underrepresented students at KSU. Students get paid $1,250/semester. The program welcomes all majors.
Similarly, we leverage the Emerging Scholars Program at the University of Kansas. This program supports low-income undergrads in their first year at KU. Scholars paid $10/hour. No prior research experience is required, just an interest in research and learning something new.
