2024 UCI Undergraduate Research Symposium Webpage

The Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) hosts the UCI Undergraduate Research Symposium, an annual event held in May, that offers hundreds of undergraduates the opportunity to present the results of their research or creative activities. See highlights from last year

Mark your calendar for May 12 – 16, 2025 and join us for a full week of exciting activities! Symposium week kicks off with four nights of select in-person Oral Presentation Spotlights, and culminates in the all-day Poster and Performance Showcase on Friday, May 16. We encourage all students, faculty, staff, and community members to attend and celebrate with us. All of the Symposium events are free and open to the public. 

All Student Presenters must register to present during the registration period, which will open in March and close in early-April 2025. The information below is from the 2024 Symposium for reference, and will be updated by early-March 2025.
