2021 Undergraduate Symposium on Research, Scholarship and Creative Endeavors, Award Winners

The annual Undergraduate Symposium on Research, Scholarship and Creative Endeavors was held April 19-23, 2021 and was an opportunity for undergraduates to present, to a larger audience, what they have learned through their research.  The virtual symposium also provided a forum for students, faculty, and the community to discuss cutting edge research topics and examine relationships among research, education, and discovery.  

We are especially proud of the more than 200 student researchers and 100 faculty mentors who found a way to continue to conduct and present research in the face of various pandemic-related obstacles.

See below for the winners of the 2021 Research Symposium. 

Congratulations to all of this year’s Research Symposium participants and mentors.
