Please contact Jorion Tucker (jtucker7@luc.edu), Community Partnerships Coordinator, for more information about any of them or to suggest topics for future workshops.

Loyola Undergraduate Research and Engagement Symposium (URES)

April 20, 2024

As part of the University-wide Celebration of Students, the Undergraduate Research & Engagement Symposium showcases undergraduate research and community engagement at Loyola University Chicago. We invite all community partners to join us to learn about our students' work, and we also hope you will consider evaluating. A major part of the Symposium is the opportunity for students to have their presentations evaluated, and we rely on the Loyola community—alumni, community partners, faculty, and staff—to do that. If you are interested in serving as an evaluator, click here for more information.
