This is made possible primarily through the newly introduced effort by the TAMS [[Research Organization]]. A [https://www.tamsro.com page] is maintained where students can submit a brief form on research interests, and where professors interested in mentoring students may seek those whom they are interested in on a PDF file organized by TAMS staff from the forms students submit.

Furthermore, RO hosts a research symposium towards the start of the school year for students to connect to mentors. An advantage of getting research through mentors seeking students is that students do not have to have a prior understanding of a professor's research to join their lab (primarily for disciplines that are difficult to understand).

=== Further Discussions ===
After the professor expresses interest, some form of meeting (Zoom or in-person, depending on time) will be scheduled. If an agreement to research under the professor's mentorship is reached, congratulations, you have gotten yourself onboard!

=== Resources ===
If you want a list of all professors in their respective fields, go to UNT's Faculty Info website: https://facultyinfo.unt.edu/?query=&type=department, and search by department. You can then search the professor(s)'s [https://www.researchgate.net/ ResearchGate] profile or [https://scholar.google.com/ Google Scholar] page to gather information about their research.

Each year, depending on fund availability, a select amount of current TAMS juniors (occasionally seniors as well) receive a scholarship to conduct a 10-week research with a research mentor; this is known as "Summer Research".

In addition, a small amount of incoming TAMS students also receive scholarship to conduct research, alongside "Summer Research" students; they are known as "Early Summer Research" students. Under the regulation of a comprehensive "contract", students live in [[McConnell Hall]] and participate in research activities full-time.

== Research Labs ==
A collection of research labs one might be interested in. Looking into labs can supplement your search for research, as professors work in tandem with their labs to conduct research, and labs often provide more context into the specific projects a professor and their student(s) are working on.

== Potential Outputs of Research ==
The Honors College holds [https://honors.unt.edu/research/unt-scholars-day Scholar Days] every year to celebrate works of undergraduate research. Students may participate with "research and creative activity conducted under the guidance of a faculty mentor at UNT". If you are accepted for the Undergraduate Research Fellowship in your junior year, you're required to submit "poster presentations, papers, or brief performing-arts productions" during the Scholars Day of your senior year, as part of the fellowship commitment.
Certain UNT colleges hold symposiums, specific to topics associated to the college, in addition to UNT journals and conferences. An example of UNT journals includes the [https://journals.library.unt.edu/index.php/undergrad/index ''North Texas Journal of Undergraduate Research''], a yearly publication for interdisciplinary undergraduate research.
There are, of course, external journals and conferences; such works will depend far more on the discipline of research and faculty preference. Should the faculty have reasons to believe that you have made adequate contributions to a paper, project or other products of mentorship (again, the definition of "adequate" here depends on faculty), co-authorship status may be granted.
