Become an Ambassador!
The Office of Undergraduate Research is opening a second round of the Undergraduate Research Ambassadors application and is actively seeking applicants with research experience in disciplines beyond traditional biological sciences. We are currently looking for applicants from fields outside those heavily represented in past cycles (e.g., biological sciences). Students with research experience in engineering, communication, computer science, languages, history, education, math, physics, philosophy, and others are encouraged to apply!
Ask Us About Undergraduate Research
The Undergraduate Research Ambassadors work to inspire broader engagement in undergraduate research by educating and serving the Texas A&M University community and beyond. They represent the Office of Undergraduate Research at campus events, connect with prospective and current student researchers, and help foster a culture of excellence at Texas A&M. The program began in 2013 with our inaugural class of 12 Ambassadors. Get to know our current cohort!
