The Honors Program encourages honors students to participate in HONORS CONFERENCES. Academic conferences are a wonderful opportunity for you to distinguish yourself as a scholar.
The following academic conferences provide a forum in which Honors Program students can present research results, participate in panel discussions, display poster presentations, and show or perform original creations (art, music, dance, etc.). Depending on the conference, these presentations may be individual, in pairs or small groups.
Southern California Conference for Undergraduate Research
provides a forum for the presentation of the best research, scholarship, and creative activities of undergraduate students in the region, and encourages communication of innovative achievements across disciplines. The next SCCUR conference will be held at CSU San Marcos.
