Research Opportunities for Undergraduate Students

Past undergraduate research opportunities in the SOS+CD Lab, with links to current openings and computational research areas.

This page describes past undergraduate research opportunities. See current openings for the lab’s present recruiting status.

The Science of Science and Computational Discovery (SOS+CD) Lab encourages and welcomes undergraduate students to participate in exciting research projects!

The SOS+CD Lab works on understanding current practices in science and developing semi-automated methods to mine scientific knowledge from vast, unstructured dataset of full-text publications, citations, and images.

We use various computational techniques, including:

  • Deep Learning
  • Natural Language Processing
  • Graph Analytics
  • Image Processing
  • Causal Inference

We use tools like:

  • Python
  • SQL
  • Spark
  • TensorFlow
  • PyTorch

Those tools and techniques are important for aspiring quantitative researchers, data scientists and data analytics to have a successful career in either academia or industry. Participating in our research projects would be a great experience to get your hands dirty.
