The International Research Opportunities Program

IROP, the International Research Opportunities Program, provides full support—travel, board, and research expenses—for students who want to learn about another country while pursuing a project—research, scholarly, or creative−abroad during the summer between their junior and senior years. The experience and the benefits for these students are truly exceptional.


The next IROP deadline is April 7, when sophomores who want an IROP grant for the summer of 2010 may submit proposals. Students should know this is the “early decision” deadline, a time when there’s less competitive than in the fall, and plan accordingly. On line at http://www.unh.edu/undergrad-research/irop.html they can find the application and lots of information about writing a successful one.
