SuperUROP Provides Undergraduate Students with Real-World Research Experience.
The two-semester supervised project, administered by MIT’s Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, takes undergraduates through the complete research cycle, from selecting a topic and designing their experiment to writing a technical paper and presenting their results at conferences. Over one thousand undergraduates have already gained valuable research experience through SuperUROP, helping them make informed decisions about graduate school, STEM careers, and more.
Two new initiatives support SuperUROP

We’re excited to announce that two major initiatives at MIT are now partnering with SuperUROP: MIT’s Generative AI Impact Consortium (MGAIC) and MIT’s Health and Life Sciences Collaborative (MIT HEALS). Beginning in the fall of 2025, students will have the opportunity to pursue an advanced undergraduate research project funded by either SuperUROP/MGAIC (research in generative AI, responsible AI, and applications that drive societal benefit) or SuperUROP/HEALS (research at the intersection of health, well-being, equity, and technology).
