As early as in the1990s, many research universities began to develop the scientific research training program for the undergraduates, aiming at training the undergraduates’ scientific research and innovation abilities, thus to supply the high-quality talents for the country. In the new era, with the rapid development of knowledge and economy, our society has been increasing its demands to talents. Scientific research for undergraduates can not exclusive to the research universities. Many local comprehensive universities also need to organize the scientific research activities for undergraduates in multi-form and multi-level according to their realities, improving the undergraduates’practical ability of scientific research as well as enhancing their innovation capacity. Thus, this paper systematically studied on the status of scientific research for undergraduates in the local comprehensive universities.In this paper, the author firstly defined some of the concepts related to scientific research for undergraduates in the local comprehensive universities, and then analyzed the features and significance of scientific research for undergraduates, pointed out that scientific research for undergraduates was different from the scientific research for institutions and university teachers, it had its own unique characteristics, and the scope of its activities not only included research activities in the traditional sense, also included the study of the learning activities. In addition, it also studied Constructivist Theory, Quality Education Theory, Creative Education Theory and Multiple Intelligences Theory to provide the theoretical support for scientific research for undergraduates; furthermore, the author summarized the development history of scientific research for undergraduates and analyzed the status of local comprehensive universities to find out the development orientation of scientific research for undergraduates in the local comprehensive universities, providing references for the organization of scientific research activities for undergraduates.The author surveyed the status of scientific research for undergraduates in the local comprehensive university Y and then learnt the general condition including the forms, guarantee measures and achievements of scientific research for undergraduates there. In the meantime, a lot of problems were found in the process of scientific research; for instance, there were fewer participants for scientific research, less achievements from the undergraduates of art, less capacity of the undergraduates for scientific research, insufficient guidance to scientific research and inappropriate administration for scientific research, and so on. Then, the author analyzed the causes from the aspects of university, teacher and student, and emphasized to discuss the X College which has comparatively more achievements in scientific research for undergraduates. Finally, according to the problems appeared in the process of scientific research for undergraduates in Y University along with the causes, the author put forward countermeasures and suggestions for the development of scientific research for undergraduates in the local comprehensive universities by improving the management system, perfecting the incentive mechanism and enhancing the undergraduate capacity of scientific research.
