Based on the database of ISI Web of knowledge, this study utilized the bibliometric and co-word method to depict literature characteristics of undergraduate research, including distribution of year and journals, publication countries, subject area, and research themes. Results show that the undergraduate research experiences an overall trend of rapid development with an imbalance in the number and impact of regional documents. The importance, curriculum design and experience research denote the current direction, and the upper-division undergraduates and inquiry-based/discovery learning will become the central issues in the future.
