Faculty Research Showcase

JUST FOUR WEEKS AWAY!

We are two weeks away from OUR Fall event. Don't forget to tell your friends. Even if you already are in research, you could meet a new professor in another area.

The Office for Undergraduate Research’s Faculty Research Showcase is an annual exposition of research conducted by faculty members and graduate students at the University of Alabama. The purpose of this event is to introduce undergraduates to research faculty and their research. We hope to introduce students to the diversity of research conducted at UA and allow students to network with research faculty members.

This in person event will be held at the Ferguson Center Ballroom 11:30am-1:00pm October 14, 2021.

Free Admission and food. Meet a mentor, join a research opportunity.
