The Undergraduate Creative Activities and Research Experiences (UCARE) Program, funded by the Pepsi Endowment, creates intellectual partnerships between UNL faculty and undergraduates by providing funds for research. For more information, please go to the UCARE Program Description.
US News and World Reports lists UNL's UCARE program as one of the 28 best university programs in undergraduate research and creative projects. Here is the full story.
