Sharing Research

Sharing your research through presentations and publications helps you complete the research cycle by learning how to communicate your work to audiences of varying levels. These opportunities also help you build professional communication skills and can enhance your resume.

Present Your Research

There are multiple opportunities to present your work on campus and beyond.

Nerd Night @ Drexel U

Nerd Night @ Drexel U is a quarterly event where students can give short talks on their research or another interesting topic with which they are involved. These informal talks are between 10 and 20 minutes and should be aimed toward a general audience without any background knowledge on the subject. The event includes trivia, food, and raffle prizes!

Undergraduate Research Conferences

Presenting at undergraduate research conferences provides you the opportunity to level up your presentation and communication skills. Applying for these opportunities gives you the chance to practice writing abstracts, and being accepted allows you to travel to another institution to present your work to peers within and outside of your discipline from across the region or even across the nation.

Undergraduate Research & Enrichment Programs provides support for students presenting at multiple undergraduate research conferences, including:

• Harvard's National Collegiate Research Conference (NCRC)
• Stanford Undergraduate Research Conference (SRC)
• National Research Conference at Penn (NRCP)
• National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR)

You can also talk to your research mentor about presenting at discipline-specific conferences.

Travel Grants

Undergraduate students who have been accepted to present work at conferences can submit applications for partial travel funding from Undergraduate Research & Enrichment Programs.
