Carleton University is a member of the Council of Undergraduate Research (CUR) – a group of educational institutions in the United States and Canada with a focus on developing undergraduate research opportunities for both undergraduate students and faculty. Each spring, the CUR hosts the annual National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR) in celebration of the research completed by students in the academic year. The conference is usually held in the first week of April just after classes end, with a different location each year.
NCUR gives students an opportunity to present research to their peers, receive valuable feedback from faculty from other institutions, network with colleagues and hear from inspiring speakers.
As part of Carleton’s ongoing support for undergraduate involvement in research, Teaching and Learning Services (TLS) is pleased to provide financial support for a select number of students whose work is accepted to NCUR, covering the cost of conference registration, travel and residence.
