What are the Presentation Formats?

Students present their work either in 15-minute formal panel presentations chaired by faculty members, in poster form, or in exhibition or performance.

The conference seeks to replicate professional and scholarly meetings, and many undergraduate scholars participate in uSOAR as a "first conference" experience, going on to present their work at national professional meetings.

2023 uSOAR PROGRAM - A SUCCESS!

We celebrated the outstanding work and achievements of our amazing faculty and undergraduate researchers and fostered important exchanges and dialogue between faculty and students by hosting a LIVE symposium! WE LOOK FORWARD TO SEEING YOU AT THE NEXT uSOAR!
