The FRI experience prepares you for any number of opportunities. We are dedicated to helping our program alumni explore and realize these options:

• • Become a Peer Mentor. Continue working with the FRI as a Peer Mentor in one of the FRI streams, or a Mentor to first year students in Originality in the Arts and Sciences or Scientific Inquiry Across the Disciplines (formerly known as Research Methods).

  • Do Advanced Research. If you would like to get into a lab for now through the rest of your undergraduate career, you attend an FRI Transitions info session. EUREKA! is also a great web reference for finding professors who are seeking undergraduate researchers.

  • Present a Research Poster. Apply to participate in the Spring in the Undergraduate Research Journal or at theUndergraduate Research Forum.

  • Find a Summer Research Program. There are ~1000 of these awarded across the country and with your research background you have a good chance to get one.

  • Study, Research or Intern Abroad. Think about a country of interest and the type of research.

Most importantly, think about your degree and what you would like out of your college experience. Think about what you want to do after you graduate. The FRI office can get you in touch with other advisors in career services and elsewhere who have many more opportunities for you.
