Student Research Opportunities
Abundant research opportunities are available to both undergraduate and graduate students at South à£à£Ö±²¥Ðã State University, the state’s premier research institution.
At SDSU, you’ll have study options in attractive fields such as renewable energy, food, health sciences, engineering or nursing. Plus, you’ll have an engaging experience as you collaborate with innovative faculty, who are conducting advanced research in their respective fields.
With the freedom to investigate, you’ll spark your creative side and open up a whole new world.
Undergraduate Research
Undergraduate students will build a network of contacts and perhaps even be published in the Journal of Undergraduate Research or have your work highlighted at a special forum on student research during the South à£à£Ö±²¥Ðã Legislative session.
You will also have the chance to showcase your findings to friends, colleagues and, of course, Mom and Dad at SDSU’s Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and Creative Activity Day. There, everything from posters to media and audio productions to performing arts are presented to the public.
The Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and Creative Activity Day celebrates student research with poster presentations, performances and awards. It's open to all disciplines, and students, faculty, staff and community members are encouraged to attend.
Graduate Research
Here, graduate students focus on research through 17 Ph.D. programs, two professional doctorates or 39 master’s-level options. You’ll have the chance to take advantage of invaluable graduate assistantships or fellowships, such as the $1 million Monsanto Graduate Fellowship in Plant Breeding, among others.
The Graduate Research, Scholarship and Creative Activity Day features student poster presentations, a keynote speaker and an awards ceremony. It's open to all graduate students, regardless of discipline.
