Frontiers in Undergraduate Research Exhibitions

Frontiers in Undergraduate Research poster exhibitions provide opportunities for UConn’s talented undergraduate researchers to share their work with the university community. Exhibitions are held twice each year, with Fall Frontiers taking place each October and the spring Frontiers event hosted in April.

Any undergraduate student may present their research or creative work at a Frontiers poster exhibition. Interested presenters must complete a brief application in order to share their project(s) and all interested presenters are accommodated. The fall and spring Frontiers events are occasions to celebrate the efforts of student researchers and their dedicated mentors.

We are excited to announced that for Spring 2026, Frontiers in Undergraduate Research Poster Exhibitions will be held in-person at three UConn campuses in addition to an online exhibition.

The 2nd annual Frontiers poster exhibition at the Waterbury campus will be held on Tuesday, April 14, 2026.

The 29th annual Frontiers poster exhibition at the Storrs campus will be held on Wednesday, April 15, 2026.

The 5th annual Frontiers poster exhibition at the Stamford campus will be held on Tuesday, April 21, 2026.

An online exhibition will go live on Wednesday, April 15. This exhibition will include posters and short video presentations shared by students on the Frontiers website.

The Spring 2026 Frontiers Submission Form will open on February 23, 2026 and remain open through March 16, 2026.

Thanks to everyone who joined us for Fall Frontiers 2025 this past October. To access the Fall Frontiers 2025 program, please visit the Fall Frontiers 2025 website.

Frontiers exhibitions are open to the public and we encourage all members of the university community to attend. Come talk with students about the projects they've pursued and what they've learned through their engagement in research and creative activity. Ask student presenters to tell you about their projects; prepare to be surprised, intrigued, and impressed by their experiences! Several hundred students present their projects at Frontiers exhibitions each year. Past exhibitions and programs are available online, via the links below.
