What's New

The National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR) is dedicated to promoting undergraduate research, scholarship, and creative activity in all fields of study. NCUR will be taking place April 8 to 10, 2024 at the Long Beach Convention & Entertainment Center in Long Beach, CA. They encourage student researchers to participate in NCUR in order to forge new connections, advocate for undergraduate research, build students' professional profiles, expand their resumes, hone their essential career skills, and much more.

To present at NCUR 2024, you must submit an abstract to NCUR by the abstract deadline of December 8, 2023. More information about NCUR can be found here. 

UGR Ambassadors are advanced undergraduate researchers and committed students that are passionate about increasing research opportunities for students in the WVU community. Ambassadors are available to speak about undergraduate research in courses and at events.

If you are interested in research or a research career, you are strongly encouraged to apply for summer research opportunities beyond WVU. Many programs encourage applications by January 2024 though each program has its own deadline.
