Got a Project You’re Proud Of? Submit to the Undergraduate Research Contest
If you are an undergraduate student who completed a research project in the last few semesters, you can submit your work to the University Libraries Undergraduate Research Contest.
You already did the hard work! Now just submit it; it’s so easy!
You submit your already-complete project as-is, and the only extra work is including a brief Research Process Statement with details about your research process.
A “research project” can be a traditional research paper, a musical composition, a work of art, a video, a web page, or other creative work.
Not sure what to submit? Check out past submissions for inspiration.
The deadline for submission of all materials is January 31, 2025. Winners will be announced in February 2025.
