Would you like to explore your passions, expand your knowledge, and create a competitive portfolio of meaningful skills and experiences?

The Center for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity (CURCA) helps students pursue research and creative scholarship. Our goal is to remove barriers and empower students by facilitating and fostering collaborative engagement, professional development, and funding to support student research and creative activity in and out of the classroom.

CURCA supports students at all levels of the curriculum, including First-Year and Common Core Classes, Independent Studies, Major-specific classes, Summer Research programs, and Honors projects. We provide opportunities for students to explore their passions, expand their knowledge, and create a competitive portfolio of meaningful skills and experiences.

Have questions? We're here for you.

The Center for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity is under the leadership of Academic Affairs.
