UROP\u2019s annual symposium is Georgia Tech\u2019s largest undergraduate research colloquium and allows students to present their research and gain valuable skills and presentation experience. Each year the symposium also presents awards to the top poster and oral presentation from each college and honors the Outstanding Undergraduate Researcher (OUR) from each college.\u0026nbsp;And with over 40 oral presentations and nearly 90 poster presentations, this year\u2019s symposium proved to be another success for UROP and Georgia Tech.\u0026nbsp;\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EThis year the symposium was held in Exhibition Hall and opened with an introduction and keynote address to students, faculty, and other non-presenters. Shortly after, the event moved into the poster presentations segment where undergraduate students displayed their research to judges, faculty, and other attendees. The oral presentations followed soon after and gave student researchers the opportunity to go more in-depth with their research and findings and answer any questions the judges and attendees had. To end the event, sponsoring colleges and departments recognized Outstanding Undergraduate Researchers from their respective colleges. Additionally, the symposium judges were tasked with selecting the top student researchers having exceptional poster and oral presentations.\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003EAny Georgia Tech undergraduate student interested in presenting their research is encouraged to apply for future symposiums and to build on research presentation skills, connect with other undergraduate researchers and faculty, and the chance to be recognized with awards by members of the Georgia Tech research community. UROP also hosts other research-related events and workshops throughout the school year to assist undergraduate students interested in research and build on their passions!\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETo view the list of awardees and pictures from the event visit:\u0026nbsp;\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/symposium.urop.gatech.edu\/awards\/\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/symposium.urop.gatech.edu\/awards\/\u003C\/a\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003ETo learn more about undergraduate research at Georgia Tech visit:\u0026nbsp;\u003Ca href=\u0022https:\/\/urop.gatech.edu\/\u0022\u003Ehttps:\/\/urop.gatech.edu\/\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/p\u003E","summary":"","format":"limited_html"}],"field_subtitle":"","field_summary":[{"value":"\u003Cp\u003EUndergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) hosted the 16th\u0026nbsp;annual Spring Undergraduate Research Symposium.\u003C\/p\u003E","format":"limited_html"}],"field_summary_sentence":[{"value":"Undergraduate Research Opportunities Program (UROP) hosted the 16th\u00a0annual Spring Undergraduate Research Symposium."}],"uid":"28156","created_gmt":"2022-04-27 22:43:16","changed_gmt":"2024-06-10 20:39:05","author":"Recha Reid","boilerplate_text":"","field_publication":"","field_article_url":"","dateline":{"date":"2022-04-13T00:00:00-04:00","iso_date":"2022-04-13T00:00:00-04:00","tz":"America\/New_York"},"extras":[],"hg_media":{"657713":{"id":"657713","type":"image","title":"UROP Welcome Ceremony","body":null,"created":"1651097417","gmt_created":"2022-04-27 22:10:17","changed":"1651097417","gmt_changed":"2022-04-27 22:10:17","alt":"","file":{"fid":"249272","name":"52033978825_a40d67e556_c.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/52033978825_a40d67e556_c.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/52033978825_a40d67e556_c.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":152658,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/52033978825_a40d67e556_c.jpg?itok=5XUt8J8P"}},"657714":{"id":"657714","type":"image","title":"UROP Poster presentation 1","body":null,"created":"1651097453","gmt_created":"2022-04-27 22:10:53","changed":"1651097453","gmt_changed":"2022-04-27 22:10:53","alt":"","file":{"fid":"249273","name":"52033979580_b185e86b40_c.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/52033979580_b185e86b40_c.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/52033979580_b185e86b40_c.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":109021,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/52033979580_b185e86b40_c.jpg?itok=Y7Z2YuI3"}},"657715":{"id":"657715","type":"image","title":"UROP Poster presentation 2","body":null,"created":"1651097500","gmt_created":"2022-04-27 22:11:40","changed":"1651097500","gmt_changed":"2022-04-27 22:11:40","alt":"","file":{"fid":"249274","name":"52033460951_c781fc34bc_c.jpg","image_path":"\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/52033460951_c781fc34bc_c.jpg","image_full_path":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/\/sites\/default\/files\/images\/52033460951_c781fc34bc_c.jpg","mime":"image\/jpeg","size":98642,"path_740":"http:\/\/hg.gatech.edu\/sites\/default\/files\/styles\/740xx_scale\/public\/images\/52033460951_c781fc34bc_c.jpg?itok=Dc0FxHLr"}}},"media_ids":["657713","657714","657715"],"groups":[{"id":"98291","name":" Experiential \u0026 Engaged Learning"},{"id":"638854","name":"UROP (news)"}],"categories":[{"id":"129","name":"Institute and Campus"}],"keywords":[{"id":"365","name":"Research"},{"id":"167061","name":"symposium"}],"core_research_areas":[{"id":"39441","name":"Bioengineering and Bioscience"},{"id":"145171","name":"Cybersecurity"},{"id":"39431","name":"Data Engineering and Science"},{"id":"39451","name":"Electronics and Nanotechnology"},{"id":"39531","name":"Energy and Sustainable Infrastructure"},{"id":"39461","name":"Manufacturing, Trade, and Logistics"},{"id":"39471","name":"Materials"},{"id":"39481","name":"National Security"},{"id":"39501","name":"People and Technology"},{"id":"39511","name":"Public Service, Leadership, and Policy"},{"id":"39491","name":"Renewable Bioproducts"},{"id":"39521","name":"Robotics"},{"id":"39541","name":"Systems"}],"news_room_topics":[],"event_categories":[],"invited_audience":[],"affiliations":[],"classification":[],"areas_of_expertise":[],"news_and_recent_appearances":[],"phone":[],"contact":[],"email":["urop@gatech.edu"],"slides":[],"orientation":[],"userdata":""}}}
