Upper Division Group Research Projects: Faculty-led group research projects for Upper Division Honors students may involve either on-campus or off-campus activities over a period of three quarters. Honors student participants will receive course credit and an Upper Division Honors Notation on their transcript for completing the project with grades of B or better. These projects may also employ a student coordinator who may be a UCR graduate student or an undergraduate.  UHP will be hiring a part-time intern who will help to organize new Group Research Projects.
