SOURCE-Related Events
SOURCE is the big event that we all spend the year preparing for. However, OUR also puts together various other events throughout the academic year to help guide students along their research journey. These events aim to teach you about SOURCE and provide you with tools and resources so that you can present with confidence in the spring!
Coming up...
Join us for How to SOURCE on February 18th in the SURC Ballrooms from 3:00 to 4:30pm to learn more about how to prepare for SOURCE, whether you are a prospective presenter, attendee, or just want to learn more about what SOURCE is!
Students will experience a small-scale poster session and learn about campus resources and more about how to prepare for SOURCE. Connect with experienced presenters to prepare for your SOURCE registration and presentation!
