Research Opportunity Program (ROP) -- deadline March 17

The purpose of the Research Opportunity Program (ROP) is to provide an opportunity for students in their second year in the Faculty of Arts and Science to work in the research project of a professor in return for 299Y1 course credit.

ROP eligibility, application forms and procedures are available at through the Faculty of Arts and Science In additiona, An ROP Information binder is available for viewing at the Computer Undergraduate Office in BA4252/4254. The ROP binder includes descriptions of all ROPs being offered in the 2006 summer and winter session.

Although most of the ROP projects are not in CS, you may still find a project that is interesting and relevant to your career plans. One of the ROP projects is for a professor in our department:

       Number of student places available: 1-3
(Note that many more research opportunities are available in CS through our Project courses CSC494H and 495H, our capstone design courses CSC490H and CSC490H, and NSERC Undergraduate Student Research Awards.)
