Support Student Research
With your tax-deductible donation, more TU undergraduate students will be able to pursue research and creative inquiry experiences.
Towson University offers several friendly venues for students to learn more about undergraduate research and to showcase the results of their research and creative inquiry projects.
Every April, the university hosts the Student Research and Creative Inquiry Forum, a celebration of research, scholarship, creativity and excellence. More information is available on the Forum Page.
Course-based Undergraduate Research Experiences (CUREs) are important additions to experiential learning opportunities for students. The poster session in May will highlight the work of Towson students in CURE courses. The session is open to all students who completed a research project (either as part of a course or not) and would like to practice presenting the results.
The Summer Research Conference was held on September 26, 2024 and featured presentations by students who completed a summer research project under the guidance of faculty at Towson University or at another institution.
Twice a year, the Celebration of Scholarship and Learning (CSL) represents an opportunity for the entire Towson University community to interact with Honors College students who have recently completed or are in the process of completing experiential learning for Honors credit, such as conducting research, studying abroad, undertaking a service-learning course, or completing an internship.
Once a year, the National Conference on Undergraduate Research (NCUR) provides opportunities for students with research projects to present their projects at national gatherings. NCUR 2025 will be in Pittsburgh,PA on April 7 - 9, 2025.
The TU Undergraduate Research Club (URC) meets every other Tuesday at 7 p.m. in 10 West Burke Avenue, room 165. URC is dedicated to helping undergraduate students achieve research excellence. This club is open to all majors and all undergraduate students, regardless of if you are a freshman or a senior. We connect club members to mentors who help students create research projects, present at national conferences and get published.
