B.R.I.D.G.E.S. Undergraduate Research Program


The B.R.I.D.G.E.S. Undergraduate Research Program is designed to increase the number of historically underrepresented students participating in research activities at Mississippi State University. The program also provides opportunities for students to engage in meaningful work experiences to deepen their knowledge. 

What's in it for me?

  • Develop professional and problem-solving skills necessary for life-long success.
  • A research faculty member or mentor helps you to create your academic and career goals.
  • Undergraduate Research can help you make graduate or professional school decisions. 
  • It is a great opportunity for all majors to help create solutions to real-world problems.
  • Get paid to conduct research.

B.R.I.D.G.E.S. Undergraduate Research Program Structure:

  • Time Frame - Experience takes place during the spring semester
  • Target Audience - Freshmen, Sophomore, and Transfer students.
  • Application: Opens during the fall semester.
  • Development roundtable sessions: This happens once per month during the spring semester.

Undergraduate research is an adventure! Create new knowledge!
