Research Courses

Students: Enrolling in a research course is a great way to begin your research journey, discover what research is like in a career field of interest, learn research techniques, and develop personal and academic research skills.

EFSC offers research courses at the associate and bachelor's degree levels. The courses listed below are designed to teach you how to design, carry out, analyze, and present original research while conducting your own novel research. Be sure to review course requirements and prerequisites to determine your readiness for enrollment in one of these research courses.

Research for Extracurricular Activity

You may also pursue research outside the classroom as an extracurricular activity. Currently enrolled students on all four EFSC campuses are welcome to participate in undergraduate research with the guidance of a Research Mentor at EFSC.
