Psychology Undergraduate Research Event (PURE)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This annual celebration of student achievement involves our 4th-year Undergraduate Honours students sharing their capstone research via poster presentations. This has become Carleton\u2019s largest undergraduate research event. To help with this celebration of student achievement, we welcome fellow students and their families, members of the Department, and the University community to attend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
