Get Into Research

Students discussing in a lab

Free - Registration Required

Learn about undergrad research at UBC and visit active labs on campus.

Thinking about getting involved in research? Whether you're keen to get some experience, or you're passionate that your future career is in research, join SCI Team for an interactive dive into undergrad research in the Faculty of Science. 

Learn from a UBC prof about their lab and research. They'll share their experience working with teams in the lab, including undergrad and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows (post-docs), and principal investigators (lead researcher). 

You'll then join smaller groups to venture out into labs to meet with a researcher, and get an idea of what it's like to be in a research facility.
