The 2011 National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR) will take place on the campus of Ithaca College in Ithaca, NY on March 31 – April 2, 2011. Typically, 15-25 students from the University of Rochester attend this conference annually and give presentations on their research. This is a wonderful opportunity for some of our strongest students to show off their work and meet other students doing research around the country. This venue is of particular value for students who do not have the opportunity to make a presentation at a professional meeting in their area of research. You can find more information on this year's conference at http://www.ithaca.edu/ncur2011/
If you know of a student who might be interested in attending NCUR 2011, please send them to the College webpage at http://www.rochester.edu/college/ugresearch/ncur/index.html where they will find an overview, application information and a timeline of the application process. Although students can submit abstracts and attend the conference on their own, the Office of Undergraduate Research will organize a trip to Ithaca for group of University of Rochester students and cover the travel expenses for as many of these students as budget constraints allow. Please note that the deadline for interested students to submit applications to the Office of Undergraduate Research to be part of this group is October 11, 2010.
