Through the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP), you can receive funds to pursue a research project here on campus, across town, or across the nation. Whether through taking a research-intensive course, working in one of the University's many centers or institutes, or teaming up with a favorite professor to pursue a mutual academic interest, the opportunities to become involved in research abound for students of all majors.

International Research Opportunities Program (IROP)
The International Research Opportunities Program (IROP) at UNH offers grants (averaging around $3,800 per student) for undergraduates to spend the summer after their junior year pursuing a research project in a foreign country. The deadline for sophomores to apply is typically in April each academic year. Students need to have at least a 3.0 grade point average, and must write a proposal detailing their research project and steps to be taken during the junior year to prepare for the trip. UNH IROP students have traveled as far away as Thailand, Tanzania, Hong Kong, England, Honduras, and many other countries around the globe. Interested sophomores should contact Georgeann Murphy, the coordinator of IROP, at 862-1933.
