About Us
The Texas Undergraduate Research Journal is a work of multi-disciplinary research produced and edited by University of Texas at Austin undergraduate students. The Journal is published every spring semester, circulated across campus, and housed in the Library of Congress. We are sponsored by the Undergraduate Writing Center.
Throughout the year, the URJ sponsors events that increase student participation in research across campus. This organization engages students with researchers in academia and in industry by annually hosting research panels. The URJ’s presence on campus extends beyond a yearly publication to include research awareness and education.
The Pioneer is the Texas Undergraduate Research Journal’s bi-weekly op-ed. Written and edited by the URJ staff, The Pioneer highlights research from a wide range of disciplines, with a focus on undergraduate experiences and opportunities.
The URJ editors extend their gratitude to our sponsors for their endless support and guidance:
