What to include in this question...

Not strictly SOP, but this is a section on one of my application forms:

"List any research program in which you have participated"

Now, this may be a really stupid Q, but what exactly does this mean? I have completed two research projects for my BSc and MSc, but have not participated in any other research i.e. in a prof's lab (we don't really do this as an undergrad in the UK, at least not at my uni)

Can I list my own research? The term research 'program' is throwing me off a little. I am due to start a short-term stint as a research assistant next year, should I include this?

Thanks all!

I think your own research is not considered a research program. So I would not write anything there. I think it's not a big deal if you leave this box blank.

I think they're referring to UROP or something similar. I don't think it'll hurt you to leave it blank.
