Undergraduate Projects Lab

The Undergraduate Projects Laboratory (UPL) is a computer laboratory in the Department of Computer Sciences at the University of Wisconsin - Madison. It is an environment for undergraduate students who wish to enhance their knowledge of computers through independent projects unrelated to coursework. It is maintained, administrated, and promoted entirely by students with support of the University of Wisconsin - Madison Computer Sciences Department.

The UPL is focused on giving undergraduate students the opportunity to persue projects and research interests -- activities that are usually reserved for graduate students.

Although the UPL is affiliated with the University of Wisconsin - Madison's Computer Sciences department, membership is open to all undergraduates at the university, regardless of major. UPL members study areas ranging from Computer Science and Electrical Engineering to Art and Political Science.
