Scholar Development and Undergraduate Research

Connecting students with transformative learning opportunities—through research, mentorship, and academic development—to help them explore their interests, grow their potential, and pursue meaningful futures

Welcome to SDUR

We provide opportunities for students to thrive and excel as they deepen their learning at K-State through opportunities to present research, compete nationally for scholarships, prepare for graduate school, and so much more. The success and well-being of K-State undergraduate students is our top priority.

Every Wildcat has a unique journey and we are thrilled to support them along the way. How can we help you?
