Undergraduate Research Week 2023

Exciting news! Thanks to the generosity of an anonymous supporter, the next 100 donors can pick up a URW t-shirt on campus for only $10! 

Student researchers, parents and friends, join us in celebrating research week by making a gift today and show off your Bruin Researcher pride with a commemorative keychain or URW T-shirt. Your gift, no matter the size, will pay it forward to the next generation of Bruin researchers while also providing opportunities for our current students. Our community support serves not only to further research but to create opportunities for others— one experience, one student, one discovery at a time.

Why Give to the Undergraduate Research Centers

Your support will help to ensure that research opportunities remain accessible to all UCLA students, regardless of their background or financial circumstances. Your donation will help to fund research projects, provide resources for students to travel to conferences and present their work, and support innovative initiatives that promote collaboration and interdisciplinary learning. As a show of our appreciation, you can also receive a special Undergraduate Research Week T-shirt for gifts of $10 or more (shipping option available for gifts of $35 or more).

The Gift of Research

Research opportunities for undergraduate students are increasingly vital to success after graduation, and yet options remain sparse for many students across the country. Your gift enables undergraduate students to explore this special opportunity through supporting scholarships, events, symposia, field research and other resources. Here are just a few of the ways that undergraduate research has made a major difference in the lives and academic careers of our students.
