Research is for everyone (in ANY major)
Research is a creative, methodical way to ask questions and uncover new knowledge. As one of the nation’s leading research universities, the UW encourages undergraduates to do research in any major. Research gives you the real-life skills in critical thinking, data analysis and collaboration that employers look for on resumes — and maybe you’ll even contribute to a breakthrough.

This all-day event showcases the UW’s astounding variety of undergrad research opportunities — and the faculty mentorship that makes it possible.
