URSCA - Undergraduate Research, Scholarly, and Creative Activity​​

As a high impact practice, undergraduate research and creative activities engage students in actively contested questions, creative expression, empirical observation, cutting-edge technologies, and the sense of excitement that comes from working to answer important questions. S​tudents gain many benefits from engaging in these activities, including preparation for graduate study, professional schools, job skills, and networking.

Funds are available​ for student ​travel, conference registrations, and poster printing.​ We hope you will consider applying, and we are here to help if you have questions. Contact us at: oscar@uwsp.edu

Request a Poster Print

While funding is available, one free poster print per academic year is allowed for undergraduate students who are presenting research at professional conferences or events or other non-course related activities. Poster printing requests must be initiated by the sponsoring instructor.

Instructors: Complete the form for each conference or event for which you will be sponsoring undergraduate student work. If you have students who are working in groups, list only ONE lead student per poster. The lead student will be responsible for​ picking the poster up once it is printed. Poster printing requires a minimum of a 2 week lead time.​​
