Scientific and Engineering Research Opportunity
UCD, a prestigious research institution, offers IFSA students the opportunity to enroll in a credit-bearing research experience in the UCD College of Science or the UCD College of Engineering. Based on your academic background and research interests, you will be assigned to an active lab and pursue a research project under the supervision of UCD faculty and their graduate student team. At the end of the semester, you will present your findings in a poster presentation session open to the whole university. UCD will mail your poster to your home institution. If interested in this opportunity, please contact your IFSA program advisor and we will ensure that you enroll in the correct UCD class for the research option. UCD will confirm the specific details of your research placement shortly after your arrival in Ireland.

After you return to the U.S., IFSA will send an official Butler University transcript to your home university with your coursework converted to the U.S. credit system. You will also have access to an unofficial transcript in your IFSA Student Portal. The transcript reflects courses taken, credits attempted, and grades earned during your term abroad. This service is included in your study abroad program at no additional cost.
