What research opportunities are available?

The University of Arkansas offers a nearly limitless number of research options. Students in and outside the Honors College have the opportunity to work individually with faculty on research projects. To find a research mentor, speak with an academic advisor, an honors advisor in the college of major, or an advisor in the Honors College. Speaking to a faculty member after class is also another good way to begin.

How can the Honors College help me fund research?
