SMC Undergraduate Research Colloquium

Join us for the 2025 SMC Undergraduate Research Colloquium!

The Colloquium showcases a sweeping array of research undertaken by the SMC undergraduate community. Thanks to the wide-ranging curiosity of our students, attendees will be treated to work spanning disciplines from Book and Media Studies to Mediaeval Studies to Anthropology and more. Students will present their work through traditional conference presentations, academic poster displays, and lightning talks. A panel of judges will offer awards.

Coffee and light refreshments will be provided.
