Symposium
UWM’s 18th annual undergraduate research symposium will celebrate the collaborations of our undergraduate students with our research-active faculty and staff across all of our schools and colleges.
Students who have received Support for Undergraduate Research Fellows (SURF) awards during the year are expected to present some outcomes of their work at this event, and other undergraduates engaged in mentored research or creative activity are encouraged to participate as well. Presentations will be given as posters or oral presentations. The undergraduate research symposium is free and open to the public. Questions about accommodations can go to Kyla Esguerra at kylam@uwm.edu.
