The College Center for Research and Fellowships
The College Center for Research and Fellowships (CCRF) helps undergraduates in the College navigate the broad array of institutional, domestic, and international undergraduate research opportunities that are available to them. Faculty-mentored research experiences complement and deepen academic work done in the classroom and provide students with key skills that prepare them for national and international fellowships, graduate study, and diverse careers. In support of undergraduate research, the CCRF organizes and runs:

- Research Grant Programs
- Annual UChicago Undergraduate Research Symposium
- Research Opportunities Database
