“One of the biggest advantages of being an undergraduate student at UT is the amount of opportunity for undergraduates to get involved in research. Taking advantage of this opportunity will not only give you a head start for graduate research, it can empower you as an individual. BDPs are wonderful because they allow you to make your own research projects so you can pursue your own interests (related to your major or not).”
