High school applicants to our program are encouraged to apply to IU's Science, Technology, and Research Scholars (STARS) and the Integrated Freshmen Learning Experience (IFLE) research programs. These programs provide research experiences during your freshman year by matching your interests with the research efforts of MLS program faculty.
If you are already at IU, you are encouraged to reach out to MLS faculty for potential research projects in their laboratory well before starting your junior year of studies. Laboratory credit is available for approved research projects in a faculty member’s laboratory.
