Center for Undergraduate Research

A Welcome from the Director

Thank you for visiting our site to learn more about The Center for Undergraduate Research (CUR) and the services we offer students, faculty, and staff.  Throughout the academic year, The Center supports undergraduate researchers while striving to lead the way as the hub of undergraduate research activity at Texas Tech University.

In addition to assisting undergraduate researchers through skills training and research funding, The Center provides expansive, one-on-one mentoring to undergraduate students in all phases of the research process.  The Center is particularly committed to the recruitment, retention, and development of undergraduate researchers at Texas Tech University.

The Center serves as a resource for researchers by assisting in identifying faculty mentors interested in developing a research project.  The Center also funds a number of scholars through fellowships, travel, and assistance with research supplies.  Additionally, The Center hosts the annual Texas Tech University Undergraduate Research Conference in coordination with campus partners.

We encourage you to stop by The Center to learn more about the services we provide.  Our staff will be happy to visit with you one-on-one to help guide you through the research process or discuss how to further get involved with research at Texas Tech University.

Warm Regards,
Jeannie Diaz, Director
