As the semester begins, all the new students as well as returning students start planning on various activities they can do throughout the school or even the summer. Here I have put together list of possible things one can do to get most of out of their Undergraduate career.

1. Go to the Involvement fair at your college or university

This is the first step towards getting involved on campus. You can browse through different clubs your school has to offer you. Sign up for anything you find interesting.

2. Alternative Winter/spring break

This event usually is sponsored by the Community Outreach program at your school. They usually have something going for every major so definitely look into it.

3. Study abroad

A fun way to learn and explore another culture while getting credit for it. check it out your school. For UConn study abroad, visit http://abroad.uconn.edu/.

4. Undergraduate Research

This is the best to expand your horizon on a topic or in a subject. Undergraduate research offers students exposure to real world hands on research experience under the guidance of the best mentors. You can even apply to fund your own research project and it can be as simple as studying how music affects brain activity to looking at polymers. Sounds Amazing!!

5. Internships and Volunteer

Summer times are best time to do internships whether it is paid or unpaid. It provides you with experience that you should whether the internship is paid or unpaid.
