Research
Original research is central to UChicago’s mission. Over 80 percent of undergraduate students choose to engage in research, and many more gain hands-on experience through internships, externships, student activities, and course practicums.
UChicago students have access to over 160 research centers and committees, six libraries within the University of Chicago Library system with over 11 million volumes, three museums (including the Oriental Institute), nearly 60 opportunities for study abroad, and built-in mentoring, advising, and other support. The University receives hundreds of millions of dollars in sponsored research awards annually, and undergraduates take part in projects that shape the way we understand and interact with the world.
Any student at UChicago who chooses to can get involved in research in a huge range of disciplines, starting their first year on campus. Guidance and support are provided by the College Center for Research and Fellowships, and funding is available through paid research positions and an abundance of grants and fellowships offered by departments, the Study Abroad office, and numerous other sources.
