Open Call: UMECIT 2025 Research Seedbeds
The Research and Innovation Directorate invites all students from Degree to participate in the Call for Research Seedbeds 2025.
🔬 What are Research Seedbeds?
The research incubators are made up of undergraduate students interested in receiving training for the development of research skills, abilities and competencies, as well as socializing the products that are generated from their activity, through team strategies and disciplinary association.
From the seedbed space, research project initiatives are developed that contribute to the promotion of a scientific culture and the connection of the student with the needs of the context, from their area of academic training.
The hotbed is a space guided by an experienced researcher, who contributes to the support and strengthening of the research carried out by its members and other activities linked to science.
Students and teachers who are part of the research hotbeds receive benefits in accordance with what is established in the Institutional Research Incentives Program, prior approval and management of the Directorate of Research, Innovation and Postgraduate Studies.
