2024 Undergraduate Research Symposium

Have you spent your summer in the lab and made a unique discovery? Gained some important insights out in the field that you want to showcase? Reviewed countless case studies to become more informed on your area of study?

Share your accomplishments! The Students’ Union Undergraduate Research Symposium (URS) gives students from all faculties an opportunity to showcase their research alongside other undergraduate researchers across campus.

This year the URS will be a hybrid in-person and online event during the Students’ Union Research Week. It will take place from November 18 - 22, 2024 through video and social media platforms. Students selected to submit a video are eligible to receive an award ranging from $250 to $1,000 and, if chosen as a winner, you will be granted the opportunity to further present your research at the in-person Poster Symposium. The program recognizes achievements in all types of research and across all faculties.

Applications open on August 16th, 2024 and close at 4:30pm on September 13, 2024.

Please note: Each student may submit one application. If accepted, each research project may only be presented by one individual (co-presentations are not permitted). Please visit us at www.su.ucalgary.ca/symposium for more information or email us at symposium@su.ucalgary.ca
