Employers expect new hires to have skills that aren’t necessarily taught in the classroom such as communication, teamwork, problem-solving, and time management skills. Research experiences help you acquire these skills so you can land your first job and embark on your dream career. IUPUI offers a variety of programs that focus on undergraduate research through the Center for Research and Learning (CRL). Even better, all of these programs offer you a stipend and the opportunity to present your research project at local and national conferences.
