UW-System Undergraduate Research Symposium
The UW System Symposium for Undergraduate Research and Creative Activity
is held each year in April. At this annual event, University of
Wisconsin undergraduate students join their peers from two- and
four-year campuses for an opportunity to share research projects to a
statewide audience. The students present across the academic disciplines
on a wide variety of topics from scientific research to artistic
expressions. To become a Symposium presenter, undergraduate students
need to register and submit an abstract in early February and a home
campus approval process is used to select participants.
NCUR
The National Conferences on Undergraduate Research (NCUR) promotes
undergraduate research, scholarship, and creative activity in all fields
of study by sponsoring an annual conference for students. Unlike
meetings of academic professional organizations, this gathering of young
scholars welcomes presenters from all institutions of higher learning
and from all corners of the academic curriculum. Through this annual
conference, NCUR creates a unique environment for the celebration and
promotion of undergraduate student achievement, provides models of
exemplary research and scholarship, and helps to improve the state of
undergraduate education. The NCUR conference is typically held in March
or April. Details can be found at: http://www.ncur.org/.
