Research for Students
Undergraduate Research Opportunities: The University of South Florida is nationally known as a research university. In that regard, USF believes that in order to attain a complete education, it is vital that students have the ability to participate in a "hands-on" fashion.
As an undergraduate student at USF, you can be actively collaborate in research with our distinguished faculty or graduate students as well as through jobs and internships in one of our various departments. These opportunities are abundant throughout the university, especially for our Honors students. The website for Undergraduate Research at USF offers information and opportunities for students interested in pursuing research endeavors.
Graduate Research Assistantships (GRAs) are awarded by departments and professors who are engaged in research projects. Research assistantships offer exciting opportunities to participate in on-going research developments at USF. More information is available from individual departments and programs.
Graduate Fellowships: In addition to Departmental Teaching and Research Assistantships, there are many ways that a graduate student can receive financial assistance. The Graduate School website lists many opportunities both within USF and outside of the university.
External Graduate Research Funding: USF subscribes to several databases that include research funding for graduate students including the Community of Science* website. Additional searchable funding sources may be found on the Office of Research website. These databases have graduate and postdoctoral opportunities in all disciplines, not just the sciences and engineering. Detailed searches from the Foundation Center Online are available by request through the Office of Corporate R&D.
*Note: This service is made available to the USF community through our subscription with COS. If you're logging on from a computer on-campus you should have direct access.
