The Astronomy & Astrophysics Department supports a wide variety of undergraduate research opportunities. Researchers in the department work in a number of exciting fields, including star formation and evolution, the structure and evolution of galaxies, stellar and supermassive black holes, exoplanets, cosmology, and astronomical instrumentation. Research can be supported via course credit in ASTR 99, 99H (for Regents Scholars), 199, and 199H (for students in the honors program). There are additional opportunities for funded research, especially during the summer. Below we provide information on research opportunities in the department.
