Universitas 21 Undergraduate Research Conference
The first U21 Undergraduate Research Conference took place in 2005. The purpose of the conference is to allow undergraduate students from around the globe to showcase their research to an international audience of fellow students and academics. The conference aims to attract students from a diverse range of discipline and typically includes a range of seminars and student presentations interspersed with social activities and tours to promote networking and stimulate discussion. The URC also offers academic staff the opportunity to engage with U21 colleagues, discuss topical issues and develop professional networks.
The 2008 Undergraduate Research Conference was hosted by the National University of Singapore from 30 June to 4 July 2008. Delegates were selected from three faculties and highly recommended the opportunity to future students.
