So you say you want a UROP...
According to Professor Sherley, "The
Stairway to a UROP" (in order of increasing effectiveness) is as
follows:
6) The UROP Office -
Room 7-104
5) The
UROP website listing
4) Dept.
UROP coordinators
3) Professors whose classes you take - look up their research online
then ask them about it after class
2) Graduate resident advisors who work in labs
1) Other students who have UROPed or are UROPing - ask them if their
labs need replacements for students leaving for the
summer/internships/graduating. When you do get an offer, ask them about
their experience and for some materials they found helpful.
Indeed, these are wise guidlines to follow. Other tips: when responding
to UROP openings via email, be persistent. If the grad student has not
replied for an interview or meeting within a few days, try politely
emailing him/her again. Show them that you are truly interested in
their research topic by understanding the project description and maybe
doing a little bit of research yourself on the lab and grad student's
work.
