Authored By: wells438 03/27/2023

The University of Minnesota Rochester is excited to announce that the 13th Annual Research and Education Symposium will be back in person. Join us on Monday, May 1, 2023 from 1-5 p.m. at The Kahler - Heritage Hall in Downtown Rochester, MN to support UMR students and their research. 

The Research and Education Symposium was designed to provide a space for students to present their research in a supportive and dynamic environment. Undergraduate research is a vital component to the educational experience UMR students receive. Research presented at this symposium is often from courses, internships, research programs or student research opportunities alongside UMR faculty. 

James Winchip, Research and Education Symposium Coordination Committee shares, "The UMR Research and Education Symposium is an event showcasing UMR students' research. We are really excited this year as it is the first time since COVID that we have been able to organize and arrange an in-person, live event. So, whether you are interested in research, presenting your research, you want to support your friends and peers, or you want to socialize with members of the Rochester community, the Research Symposium has something to offer you."
