ACUR Connect 2026
This year, ACUR is taking a fresh approach. While ACUR Connect is not our usual conference, it offers an engaging one-day event designed to bring undergraduate researchers together to connect, share ideas and celebrate their work.
Whether you’re ready to showcase your research or simply keen to meet like-minded students, there’s a place for you at ACUR Connect. Participants can choose to:
- Deliver a short, dynamic Lightning Talk
- Present a Research Poster
- Attend as a participant and enjoy the networking, presentations and activities throughout the day
Thanks to the generous support of our long-standing partner HERDSA, three prizes of $200 each will be awarded for the event’s most outstanding research presentations.
ACUR Connect brings together passionate, research-active undergraduate students at a pivotal stage in their academic and professional journeys. Through inspiring student presentations, interactive workshops and valuable networking opportunities, the event provides a platform to exchange ideas, gain feedback, and build meaningful connections.
Whether you’re considering honours, postgraduate study, a research career, or opportunities in industry, ACUR Connect is an opportunity to expand your network, learn from your peers and take the next step in your research journey.
Join us for a day of connection, conversation and undergraduate research. Places are strictly limited to 70 attendees.
