*16th Annual MA Statewide Undergrad Research Conference
Saturday, April 23, 2010
Every year from all around the state, students present work (either
individually or in groups) on Thesis Research, Community Service, Creative
work in the visual and performing arts, Independent Study, and Study
Abroad. Any undergraduate student is eligible to participate. This is a
great opportunity for students to learn to present academic work or
experiences in a formal setting, to receive feedback from scholars in
their field, to enhance their resume, and to exchange ideas with other
undergraduate scholars.
To apply, a student or student group needs to select a Faculty Sponsor and
then submit an abstract online at: wwww.comcol.umass.edu/conference.
THE DEADLINE FOR ABSTRACT SUBMISSIONS IS FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 19TH. If you have any
further questions about the conference, please visit:
www.comcol.umass.edu/conference, or send questions to UMD's Campus
