Student Research at GU-Q
Focus on Student Research
We embrace and support undergraduate research because it promotes deep learning and personal
growth through teaching students to solve problems and to work in teams. Undergraduate research
projects also connect students with faculty mentors resulting in highly personalized and meaningful
learning experiences.
Resources for Students
Honors in the Major
High performing students are invited to write a thesis in their senior year under the mentorship of a faculty member. This original research project must be presented to a panel of faculty members and be deemed exceptional in order for the student to receive Honors in the Major.
Funding Opportunities
Student Research Funding
Research & original fieldwork assist students in transforming into scholars. GU-Q provides internal research grants to support students who are thinking deeply about various subjects in the humanities.
The Undergraduate Research Experience Program
The Undergraduate Research Experience Program (UREP) offered through Qatar National Research Fund, provides funding for students to hone their research skills and learn team-based collaboration by participating in a real-world research project under the mentorship of a faculty member.
