The expo takes place every semester and is an opportunity for undergraduate students to showcase and celebrate their research. Through this opportunity, students will also receive feedback and discuss research with fellow undergraduates and faculty. 

Unlike other semesters, the spring provides a unique opportunity for students to showcase their research, the Video Research Awards. The Video Research Awards allow students to explain their research within a two-minute video. The first round of voting is completed by the community, and then a panel selects the top three students. The first-place presentation receives a prize of $1,000, and second and third place receive a prize of $500 each. 

The in-person expo is open to the public and free to attend. 

Additional information about this semester’s Service Learning and Undergraduate Research Expo can be found at https://www.uab.edu/service-research/expo

The UAB Office of Service Learning and Undergraduate Research strives to elevate student academic success, promote civic engagement, and strengthen local and global communities by connecting students, faculty and community nonprofit partners.
