Natural Sciences Undergraduate Research Symposium
The Natural Sciences Undergraduate Research Symposium was held on Wednesday, April 16, 2025 in Tudor Fieldhouse.
As part of the Russell Shearn Moody Pathway to Research, this annual event highlights the incredible research contributions of our undergraduate researchers through judged poster presentations.
The poster sessions provide a platform for sharing innovative research, at any stage, with the Natural Sciences community. In these one-hour sessions, presenters will have the opportunity to be evaluated by attendees and receive feedback on their presentations. Posters that achieve excellence in research and presentation will be recognized, and the top poster in each thematic area will receive a cash prize. Research mentor approval is required.
