About us

The Undergraduate Research Hub encourages all students from the beginning of their studies to engage with research.

The UGR Hub facilitates staff-student research collaborations and supports students in publishing their work. The UGR Hub is a resource for students as they explore the concept of undergraduate research and we aim to generate a community of practice to support undergraduate students in finding their own research paths.

The UGR Hub has the following aims for the 23/24 academic year:

  1. Build and develop research skills for undergraduate students.
  2. Develop UGR Hub cafes for undergraduate research students in FLAS.
  3. Create recognition of research skills as sustainable learning beyond the life of the degree.
  4. Develop and fund research projects where staff and students are co-creators or partners.
  5. Develop a research module for academic programmes across FLAS to be launched September 2024.
  6. Engage undergraduate students in identifying a pathway to postgraduate research.
