Research Opportunities

Are you interested in getting involved in undergraduate research? A research experience can help you learn valuable skills for your future career, prepare you for graduate school, and help you decide if research is a good fit for you. Our guide will help you find research experiences, contact research faculty, and get the most out of your research experience. 

Types of Research Experiences

Undergraduate research experiences generally fall into 3 categories. You can try out all of these types of research experiences during your time at UT.

1. On-Campus Research Experiences

These are research experiences at UT and can happen year-round. Some are paid and others are unpaid. Often, an unpaid experience can turn into a paid one over time through fellowships or grants. Positions in labs on-campus aren't often posted to a job board; instead you will need to contact professors to see if they have any openings in their labs. Learn more about how to contact professors through the Getting Started in Research Guide.

Undergaduate Research Assistant Program

The McCombs Undergraduate Research Assistant Program provides opportunities for undergraduate business students to assist faculty research objectives. Funding for these assistantships come from the Research Excellence Fund.

URA-L (Lab URAs)

Research positions in the Behavioral Lab will allow you to grow your management skills, as you work with other URAs and the lab coordinator to effectively facilitate experiments for doctoral students and McCombs faculty members wishing to execute lab experiments. Lab URAs are responsible for setting up the lab to run studies, checking in participants for studies, and overseeing participants as they execute those studies. For these studies, Lab URAs may attend a training session with the experimenter to best understand how to execute the study. During these training sessions, URAs are often asked to pitch suggestions, or provide their own input on how to best execute the study design. Lab URAs are also recruited by the lab coordinator to assist with subject recruitment, which may include creating and distributing study advertisements.

Outside of these main responsibilities, Lab URAs may be recruited to execute Supplemental Data Assistance (SDA) tasks in addition to their weekly shifts in the lab.

As noted above, Ph.D. students or McCombs faculty members who need assistance with a particular aspect of their research will recruit a URA-L to execute these short–term projects, that URAs can complete alongside their hours dedicated to in-lab shifts. SDA tasks will not exceed 5 hours of work per week. These tasks are unique from one another and can be as simple as downloading articles into a folder, or more research heavy, such as content analysis and data organization. URAs will volunteer for those that match their skill capabilities and interests.

Submit an application for a Lab URA position (URA-L)

URA-F (Faculty URAs)

If you are interested in conducting research on specific topics, becoming a research assistant for a specific faculty member within McCombs may be a good fit. To get involved, you should reach out to faculty whose expertise align with your interests (in advance of the semester you wish to get involved). Your best bet for seeking these opportunities is directly contacting faculty whose research interests you, however, below is a link to a form where you can submit materials to express your interest in faculty research opportunities (in addition to your personal outreach); filling out this form does not guarantee a position. To learn more about the different types of projects students may work on with faculty, read the below anecdotes from current and former Faculty Undergraduate Research Assistants.

Research Involvement

Research is not a secret enterprise reserved only for professors and graduate students. Virtually every undergraduate can become involved directly in research.

Every faculty member has the authority to let students sign up to assist with research. The type of assistance you may provide in a research setting may find you active involved in conducting research, administering tests or questionnaires or formulating research questions. It is usually possible to get involved in an area that is related to our primary interests. 

Check out the programs below to learn about the department's research opportunities.

​​​ Continuing Your Research: The Departmental Honors Program

Students interested in pursuing their own lines of inquiry may want to apply for the Departmental Honors Program. The program consists of four courses – PSY 458, PSY 359H, PSY 379H and PSY 158H – which are usually completed in a two-to-three semester sequence during their final semesters at UT. These courses allow a student to complete an independent research project under the supervision of a faculty member in the department. Typically, students will find support and assistance with faculty whose interests are most closely aligned with the research topic. 

While PSY 359H, 379H and 158H are restricted to students admitted to the honors program, PSY 458 Experimental Psychology is open to all students meeting the GPA requirement (minimum 3.25 GPA in psychology). Taking this course prior to starting an honors project may help you to decide whether to apply to the program and could also become a pilot for whatever experiment you want to conduct through the honors program.

For more information about Departmental Honors, you can check out the Honors Program page.

PSY 357 Undergraduate Research

Gain supervised research experience.

(May not be counted toward a major in psychology)

PSY 357 is highly flexible. Depending on the faculty member with whom you work, there is a good deal of freedom as to whether you will work on a project already underway or become involved at the beginning of a project. After a semester or two of research you should find that your skills in research collaboration and formulation of research questions will increase. The skills you cultivate through this individualized opportunity can apply to almost any professional area and is therefore valuable regardless of the direction you intend to go with your degree.

The purpose of this individual instruction course is to provide an opportunity for advanced and qualified undergraduates to obtain first-hand, supervised research experience in psychology. The student will usually assist a professor with a research project by helping to prepare the study and by running subjects in the study. The student may work with a graduate student who is doing research supervised by a professor. The student should not expect to be able to conduct an experiment of his/her own.

Prerequisite: At least 30 semester hours of college coursework, Psychology 301 with a grade of at least a "C," and consent of instructor.

Restricted enrollment ; Request to take PSY 357 by emailing [email protected]

The Psychology Undergraduate Mentoring Program (PUMP)   

The Psychology Undergraduate Mentoring Program (PUMP) is a semester-long mentorship program for undergraduates at The University of Texas at Austin interested in learning about psychological research. No previous research experience is necessary, but applicants should have a strong interest in psychological research. 

Students who are accepted into the program will be matched with a psychology graduate student based on common interests to conduct a research project (e.g., literature review, coding simulation, learning a new lab technique). We also host professional development workshops and socials for mentees throughout the semester. 

Responsibilities for mentees include weekly hour-long meetings with their mentor, and 4 hours of independent work each week. Furthermore, they are expected to draft a 300-word abstract and present a research poster at our end-of-program research symposium. 

Applications for the PUMP Fall 2024 cohort are open now and will close at 11:59 PM on Thursday, April 11th. If you are interested in joining the program, please fill out an application here:  https://utexas.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_81vPhj2zXQOdG0S .
