Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and Creative Activities Conference
The Conference at UC Davis is an opportunity for undergraduates in all academic fields to present their research. Students are invited to submit an abstract for consideration. Research must be under the supervision of a faculty or professional in the field. The conference is designed to acquaint undergraduates with the process and academic rigors of presenting research in a scholarly manner. Students present their research projects to faculty, staff and other conference participants either by oral, poster, artistic performance or exhibit. The abstracts are to be submitted by mid-February and the conference takes place in late April. For more information see the Undergraduate Research, Scholarship and Creative Activities Conference page.
