Undergraduate Research Showcases

Curious about what Honors College students are researching? 

Join us for our Undergraduate Research Showcases — dynamic virtual events where Honors College students present their thesis research in short, lightning-style talks. These showcases offer a glimpse into the wide range of topics our students explore and are a great way to discover what research looks like in the Honors College.

Whether you're just beginning to think about research or still figuring out your interests, attending a showcase is a great way to get inspired, learn about opportunities, and connect with fellow students and faculty.

After the presentations, you'll have the chance to join breakout rooms for Q&A and conversation with the presenters. These events are open to all students, faculty, families, and friends — and recordings will be available for those who can't attend live.

All undergraduates are welcome, regardless of major or research experience. Be sure to download the OSU Events App to stay up to date on all Honors College events and opportunities.
