STRAND (Student Research @ Notre Dame) provides undergraduate students with clear, scheduled, and equitable access to research opportunities.

Mentors are professors, graduate students, or postdocs who can provide meaningful research experiences for undergraduates. To post a project, log in with your NetID and request mentor status.

Students can apply to up to three (3) projects on the project page Log in with your NetID to get started.

STRAND will run four rounds:  at the start of the fall semester for fall positions, mid-fall semester for spring positions, early spring semester for summer positions, and late spring semester for the following fall.
