<p>Cornell is noted for its organized undergraduate research program. Here is the link:
Undergraduate</a> Research at Cornell</p>
<p>At Cornell, I had a research assistantship in Applied and Engineering Physics (Plasma Lab), a teaching assistantship in Applied and Engineering Physics, an internship at NASA, and an internship at the Arecibo Radio Observatory in Puerto Rico.</p>
<p>The opportunities don't fall into your lap but they are there for those who seek them.</p>
<p>what about research in the social sciences?</p>
<p>I agree with pyles_m -- Rice has fabulous research opportunities for undergrads (and not just medically-related).</p>
