URAD Student Ambassadors

URAD student ambassadors are experienced undergraduate researchers at UNM who are tremendous resources for students who are just getting started in research. You don't have to have the same major or same research interests as them; they are happy to guide students of all majors in their research journey.

Meet the Ambassadors

Anyone can participate in research and URAD can help! Click on each ambassador to learn more about their research journeys, they are excited to help you get started! Peer advising with URAD ambassadors will return for the 2026-27 academic year on the first day of classes in August. Please request an advising session with an ambassador here.

What Do Ambassadors Do?

They support students of all majors and backgrounds who are interested in research by offering advising sessions in which they can answer questions, help with writing professional emails to faculty or assist in putting together strong applications for research programs. In addition to peer advising, they also produce URAD’s content on Instagram, they visit classes to promote URAD services and they table at events around campus for URAD. They are excited to help you get started on your research journey today!
