In order to provide a more fulfilling learning experience for UGA students, the Honors Program offers undergraduates the opportunity to share their research projects. Participation is open to students in all colleges and departments and is not limited to Honors students. Students participating in CURO have the opportunity to work on independent research projects under the guidance of senior faculty.
Research allows students to engage in topics that reach beyond the scope of traditional coursework.
The symposium is a way of coming together to celebrate it. It shows that you can get a quality education at a large institution. This year's symposium, which will be held at the Georgia Center for Continuing Education, will coincide with the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools accreditation visit, giving the students a greater audience for their work. But the undergraduates haven't received much formal recognition for their work. The symposium provides that recognition and may play an important role in helping participants choose a future career or graduate school.
