Science & Engineering Research Center
The Science & Engineering Research Center (SERC) provides research funding for undergraduate and graduate students engaged in research with faculty members in the TCU College of Science & Engineering.
Funding opportunities are offered twice annually: early in the fall and spring semesters.
SERC was originally funded through a grant from the TCU Vision in Action Strategic Initiative Fund from 2006 – 2010. In fall 2012, the Dean of the CSE decided to revive the program, initially through funds provided from the Dean’s office, but subsequently also with funds from the academic departments in the CSE.
Since 2006, SERC has funded over 800 undergraduate student projects in the CSE. About half of the undergraduate projects at each of the College’s annual Student Research Symposia are funded by SERC.
