Undergraduate students assist in many research activities at CCFL. They typically obtain research credit hours for their work, but occasionally projects are funded. There are also opportunities through the university's Undergraduate Creative Activities and Research Experience (UCARE) program.
While assisting at CCFL, students have completed their Honors Thesis and presented findings at conferences or published them. Many of the undergraduates at CCFL have gone on to competitive graduate school programs nationwide.
Volunteer opportunities
To volunteer, you must be a current University of Nebraska–Lincoln student (undergraduate or graduate/professional). Students can start volunteering with CCFL at any time of the year. As a volunteer, you will have the chance to learn, meet interdisciplinary experts, and make a difference in the lives of children and families. Volunteers have the opportunity to assist with a variety of research, service, and training projects.
Internship opportunities
Our internship opportunities prepare undergraduates and graduate students to think differently and drive innovation in research, policy, and practice. Positions may be full-time, part-time, paid, or unpaid, and many University of Nebraska–Lincoln departments allow you to earn academic credit in conjunction with an internship.
UCARE opportunities
The Undergraduate Creative Activities and Research Experience (UCARE) program at the university is a paid opportunity to work one-on-one with a faculty research advisor.
Work study opportunities
Student worker positions are only available to enrolled students who regularly attend classes and work for the university as a form of merit-based student financial assistance provided through the university. Employment in student worker positions will not be covered by any program of unemployment insurance.
