Undergraduate Research and Funded Travel Opportunity (talk to your mentor if interested)

 

Council on Undergraduate Research

 

New Research = New Presentation

 

3 Weeks Left to Submit to NCUR 2024.

 

Being involved with NCUR in the past you know that the National Conference on Undergraduate Research is unlike other meetings of academic professional organizations. This conference offers a unique environment for the celebration and promotion of undergraduate student achievement in all disciplines; provides models of exemplary research, scholarship, and creative activity; and offers student career readiness development.

 

This year, NCUR is being held at the Long Beach Convention Center in Long Beach, California from April 8-10, 2024.

 

Whether you have new research findings to share or have made further advancements on that initial research, Apply today for NCUR 2024!

 

 

Submit as an Undergraduate Research Student

Students should consider submitting their research presentation to NCUR for the opportunity to gain national recognition, foster professional development, contribute to their field's knowledge, enhance their resume, and expand their professional network. All presentations and experiences will continue to help grow the importance of undergraduate research and its programs. The overall atmosphere of NCUR engages students beyond an average conference and provides them with networking opportunities with the undergraduate research community during presentations and throughout the conference. Submit an abstract here >>

S-STEM Funded Master's Degree Opportunity

In 2021, a team in the Penn State College of Engineering was awarded National Science Foundation (NSF) Scholarships in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics Program (S-STEM) funding (#2130169) to support talented low-income students to obtain a two-year, thesis-based master of science (M.S.) degree in engineering or computer science. The program is known locally as the Advancing Master’s Program (AMP).

Please share the attached information sheet with your undergraduate S-STEM scholars in engineering or computer science (or majors that feed into engineering such as physics or math). Some of the M.S. programs have deadlines as early as December 1.
