The 28th annual Undergraduate Symposium will be held on Friday, April 17th, 2026 at Union South.
Undergraduate students at UW-Madison are encouraged to apply to present their research, scholarly work, service-learning projects, community-based research, creativity, and art. Students can choose to present a poster, 5-minute presentation, 10-minute presentation, art/project display, or film/performance.
The Undergraduate Symposium is an excellent opportunity to gain public-speaking and presentation experience, build your professional repertoire (and your resume/CV!), and learn about other undergraduate projects across campus.
As you apply and prepare to present at the Undergraduate Symposium, this will be your go-to page on all of the most important details to know.
For an in-depth, step-by-step guide to preparing to present at the symposium, we encourage you to visit the “Prepare” page.
More information for presenters will be available on this page in Spring of 2026.
