The Undergraduate Research Symposium and sponsoring departments recognize students who have exceptional poster, oral, creative work, and works in progress presentations. By participating in the Symposium, your presentation may be eligible to receive an award based upon your indicated presentation topic at the time of registration, as well as meeting award specific criteria (i.e. major, UO student or presentation type). The registration deadline is April 17th.
