COSE Annual Student Research Symposium

The College of Science and Engineering 1st Annual Student Research Symposium 

April 18, 2025 1:00PM-3:00PM

Student Center Ballroom 205

The annual student research symposium is an opportunity for all students in the College of Science and Engineering to showcase the research they have been working on both in the lab and out in the field. It brings students and faculty from all our disciplines together in one place and is a great way to learn about the amazing research that goes on in the College of Science and Engineering at the University of Central Arkansas.

To continue to protect the health and safety of our faculty, staff, and students, this year’s symposium will be held with appropriate protocols to allow for an in person event. You all have worked hard in the lab and in the field and we are excited that we will get to see and hear the results of your efforts!

We will also be announcing the recipients of this year’s Advancement of Undergraduate Research in the Sciences (AURS) and Southwestern Energy research awards.

The COSE is proud of where the Student Research Symposium is today but recognizes it would not be what it is today without the past that built it. COSE is proud of its past as CNSM and everything it was able to accomplish. Click the link below to view the CNSM Symposiums that helped shape what is now the COSE Student Research Symposium.
