Celebration of Undergraduate Research & Creativity - April 28, 2010
What is the Celebration?
URECA's Celebration of Undergraduate Research & Creativity is an annual event organized by the URECA Program (part of UAA)
that showcases undergraduate research and is open to all SBU undergraduates conducting
faculty-mentored research and creative projects. As the only university-wide research
symposium, this event provides a way for faculty and students to see what's going
on in their own and other departments. The success of URECA's Research Celebration
relies on the efforts of faculty who provide time, resources and encouragement
to participate.
A
central part of the Celebration is a large all-day poster session where students present their work
to faculty, each other and visitors. The Departments of English, History and
Psychology hold concurrent symposia featuring oral presentations; the College
of Engineering & Applied Sciences holds a senior design conference featuring
talks from selected teams in each of the engineering departments. Together with
faculty from the Departments of Art and Music, URECA also sponsors
an undergraduate art exhibition at the SAC Gallery; and an undergraduate Musical Celebration(s)/recital(s).
During
the Celebration event, the Student Activities Center is filled with student
poster presentations, displays, demonstrations, live performances, films, and
art exhibits. All are welcome to attend!
How do I get involved?
We encourage you to participate in this event! You'll have a chance to share your work with other members of the university community, and gain important presentation experience. You may obtain the student participation form from the URECA office, or click here.
Are there prizes?
We encourage all students involved in mentored research to participate. The Celebration Event is not judged; some departments choose to sponsor departmental prizes for undergraduate poster and/or oral presentations. Please contact Karen Kernan if your department is interested in sponsoring a competition. If you have questions about the Celebration, please contact Karen Kernan @ 632-7114 or via email.

Celebration participants get published in the annual
