Undergraduate StudentsWe accept applications year round for research volunteers; however, we do not always have space. Interested UTEP undergraduate students should complete an application form (below). We do not know how many open spots we might have for the 2024 Spring semester, but if you would like to be considered, please submit your application no later than December 8th 2023. Applications submitted after that deadline will be reviewed based on remaining available spots on a rolling basis. Finalists will be invited to interview for research positions.
A minimum of 10 hours a week is expected, though 20 hours a week is strongly recommended for individuals considering applying to graduate school in the future. Due to the demanding time commitment associated with working in a behavior lab, we typically do not accept students beyond their freshman or sophomore year at the time of application. However, all completed applications will be considered. We do also review applications from recent college graduates who are taking a gap year/time off before applying to graduate or medical school. You do not need to be enrolled at UTEP to be eligible to volunteer. 
Not in college yet but interested in gaining research experience? El Paso area high school students are welcome to reach out to Dr. Serafine about opportunities too! Email her at kmserafine2@utep.edu for more information.
