The Third Annual Science Undergraduate Research Experience (SURE) Conference (SURE 2020) on 16th October 2020 as a national, online conference (due to the Covid-19 restrictions). Students throughout Ireland who are completing their Final Year Project in 2019-20 are invited to submit their undergraduate research work to this conference.
The aims of the conference are to:
- Provide current students with an opportunity to gain an understanding of the work which has been undertaken by recent graduates, and the career opportunities that exist for graduates in Scientific disciplines.
- Provide recent graduates with an opportunity to gain a reviewed publication based on the scientific research undertaken by them during their undergraduate studies.
- Celebrate the academic achievements of recent graduates in the scientific disciplines.
- Provide a multi-disciplinary scientific forum through which undergraduate research outputs can be disseminated to students, researchers, academic professionals and industry.
On the day there will be 24 oral presentations and 50 poster presentations by graduates from institutes nationally. This year the conference is divided into three streams based on research themes rather than geography.
