Every Spring, the college celebrates its student-scientists at this one-day event. More than 200 students present posters describing their research. The best and most innovative posters and presentations are recognized with awards judged and sponsored by the university, faculty, alumni and industry.

The 2012 Undergraduate Research Forum took place on Friday, April 13, 2012 from 11am to 3pm in the Welch main hallway.
