South Texas Interdisciplinary Research For Undergraduate Programs
The Graduate School is excited to offer a new program starting in Summer 2021 to introduce undergraduate students to graduate programs, in collaboration with the Honors College and in partnership with UTSA Colleges. The South Texas Interdisciplinary Research for Undergraduate Program (STIR-UP) is recruiting a cohort of 12 highly motivated undergraduate students entering their sophomore year in Fall 2021. In this fully funded 10-week residential program, STIR-UP students will work with nationally renowned faculty and cycle through UTSA research labs while being introduced to the broad transdisciplinary area of Water Research, Sustainability and Policy. STIR-UP will include hands-on team research, professional development, and partnerships with the Citymester program for civic engagement. STIR-UP students will participate an average of 30 hours per week during the 10-week program.
