Undergraduate Researchers' Graduate School Registry

The Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR) has initiated a Registry of Undergraduate Researchers. The purpose of this registry is to facilitate matchmaking between undergraduates with research experience and a desire to pursue an advanced degree, and graduate schools seeking high quality students who are well prepared for research. Currently the Registry is open to students and graduate schools/employers in nearly all the fields of science that are supported at NSF. We also hope to add a second module next year, for students wishing to enter the workforce upon graduation and potential employers.

Any undergraduate may go to www.cur.org/ugreg/ to fill out a simple vitae form. There is no charge to the student. Student information records will be made available to bona fide graduate schools that contract with CUR for this service. Organizations or companies seeking the students' information for other marketing purposes will not be granted access.

Students will be able to update their listing at any time, to include any summer research experience or information about Senior Theses and test scores. CUR believes that this service will benefit both students and graduate schools/employers by narrowing the search for the right match.
