Save the Date: Undergraduate Research Week April 18 - 22
The national celebration of Undergraduate Research Week is set for April 18-22, 2022, and the University of Arkansas is celebrating with a slate of virtual events and a poster competition. All undergraduate students are encouraged to participate.
The week's events will feature a virtual research poster competition, a series of workshops and speakers, examples of successful undergraduate researchers and more. Additional programming details will be released during the Spring 2022 semester.
"Undergraduate Research Week provides a venue for showcasing undergraduate research at the U of A and recognizing the faculty and staff who support undergraduate researchers," said Joel Thornton, director of instruction and liaison services for the University Libraries. "The in-person poster session, on April 20, will be open to the public."
