Undergraduate Research Conference
Save the date - 2021 event
The 2021 Undergraduate Research conference will be held on Thursday 15 July, 2021
The Undergraduate Research Conference offers an exciting opportunity for students and recent graduates to showcase research completed as part of their undergraduate coursework, a summer or other research internship, a research-based degree program, or voluntary work.
After a hiatus in 2020, the URC returns better than ever in 2021!
In its 6th year, the conference provides an excellent platform for budding researchers to:
- demonstrate their communication skills,
- meet students from other disciplines, and
- learn how other disciplines approach research problems.
