The Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) is housed in CU Boulder's Office of Undergraduate Education (OUE), which works throughout the university to create an academic environment in which all students can succeed and thrive in the fullest expression of their individual identities.

Call for Participants

Developed and hosted in Boulder since 2018, UROP's Sidewalk Symposium invites undergraduates to share their research and creative presentations with chalk on campus walkways. UROP welcomes undergraduates at any stage of their project to participate.
