About EUREKA!™

EUREKA!™ is a web-based guide to faculty research and research opportunities for undergraduates at the University of Texas. It was created by Connexus, Connections in Undergraduate Studies, in collaboration with the College of Natural Sciences, College of Engineering , College of Liberal Arts , Office of the Vice President for Research , and the Center for Instructional Technologies.

EUREKA!™ features an online directory of faculty research interests for the more than 1800 faculty members and research scientists at UT Austin. Visitors to the site are able to search by keyword and find faculty from a wide range of fields working on a variety of topics.

Students use EUREKA!™ to find tips on getting started in research, information on funding and publication, and postings by UT faculty for research positions here on campus. In addition, interested students have the option to meet individually with staff research coordinators to develop strategies for getting involved and find placements.

UT faculty can update their existing profile pages and post openings for undergraduate students on their research projects.
