Undergraduate Research
    |
Why Research?
Undergraduate research is an excellent resumé enhancer as it demonstrates not just your interest in the field, but also your work ethic and ability to work towards an academic goal. It furthermore enhances the quality of education received and enhances the overall experience of engineering. And of course, there are stipends to help relieve financial burdens.

Research Opportunities with the Edson Initiative
The Edson Student Entrepreneur Initiative is a key component in building ASU’s entrepreneurial climate, providing student-led teams with the tools, resources, and confidence they need to start a new venture, both for-profit and not-for-profit. Unlike other entrepreneurial competitions that provide money and resources to a small number of winners, the Edson Initiative provides a total of $200,000, office space and training each year to a large number of student-led entrepreneurial ventures of all types. In its inaugural year, the Initiative is providing funds to 16 teams of students from across the university to explore their innovative ideas for business products and services in partnership with faculty, researchers and successful entrepreneurs from both the academic and private sectors.
