Student Opportunities

Students engaged in undergraduate research or creative works are encouraged to present their projects at regional and national meetings. Here are several meetings at which our students have presented in the past.

10th Annual Celebrating Scholarship and Creativity Day - April 28, 2010. This is a campus wide event that recognizes the achievements of the many student scholars engaged in independent creative work or research projects at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John's University.

NCUR -- The 2010 National Conference on Undergraduate Research will take place in Missoula, Montana, on April 15-17. NCUR24 will bring together undergraduates involved in scholarly and artistic activities representing a range of disciplines including creative arts, mathematics, business, social sciences, humanities, physical and life science, natural resources, and engineering among others.

Posters on the Hill- On April 13, 2010 the Council on Undergraduate Research (CUR) will host its 14th annual undergraduate poster session on Capitol Hill.
