News & Student Opportunities

OURA will use our News and Events page and our social media to advertise research and artistry opportunities available to undergraduate students. Faculty, graduate students and staff are encouraged to submit a position for posting.  We will note in the posting whether the position is paid or not.  Keep in mind that social media posts are very short and we may need to edit down the description quite a bit.  You do not need to be the supervisor for the project/opportunity that you are submitting (you can post external opportunities).  Please submit an opportunity form and complete as many sections as you can before hitting submit.
