We are at the University of Limerick March 25th for AICUR!
We are honoured to be invited back to the All Ireland Conference for Undergraduate Research or, AICUR for short, again this year.
AICUR is an undergraduate conference which offers students (from first to final year) from any Higher Education Institution (HEI) across Ireland the opportunity to present their research and showcase their research accomplishments and provides a natural feeder to our Global Award and a chance for everyone to see what standout work is coming up from our universities.
This year’s theme is: Innovating for Impact: Undergraduate Research Shaping tomorrow and we are hoping to encourage the inspiring attendees to consider pushing their national ambitions to our Global platform.
With Keynote speakers Leah Ní Sheanacháin who’s undergraduate work included designing a ground-breaking pregnancy test for blind and visually impaired women, and our very own Diane nolan offering an important look at Self-agency in the academic void: when graduating with a degree isn’t enough.
If you are in Ireland and looking for a way to highlight your work and test your research credentials, this is one not to miss.
We can’t wait to meet you all, hear about your undergraduate research and answer any of your questions on taking your ambitions Global!
