Welcome to the Faculty and Staff page for the Undergraduate Research Directory

The resource is a centralized directory for research opportunities at UCSB. 

The Directory offers several search and filter functions that we hope will make it easier for students to identify the right opportunities. Anyone with a SSO can submit, edit, and hide their own posts. 

Faculty, graduate students, and staff are all welcome to share their programs here to recruit student applicants.
