Research Experiences for Undergraduates
Faculty in the department offer undergraduate research programs, typically during the summer. If you are interested in participating and you know with whom you would like to work, contact that faculty member; otherwise contact the Department Head, with a brief description of yourself and your concrete research interests, if any.
Purdue's Cooperative Education Program
An excellent opportunity for undergraduate students to gain work experience. Co-ops also pay well!
