About UAlbany Showcase (What & Why)
About UAlbany Showcase (What & Why)
Entering its fourth year, UAlbany Showcase shines a light on the academic excellence of our students across all programs and fields.
On display will be the work of undergraduate and graduate students, including their research, scholarship, creative endeavors and applied/experiential learning.
Showcase will be a full day of poster displays, oral presentations, demonstrations, panel discussions, recitals, art exhibitions and performances that reflect new and original exploration of topics in STEM, arts and humanities, social sciences and the professions.
Presentations will reflect all nine of UAlbany’s schools and colleges, as well as many of our research centers and institutes. Research events and exhibits that used to be held separately — such as the CEHC Showcase, the School of Public Health Poster Day and the MFA Show — have been moved to this day.
A detailed event schedule and map will be released closer to the event.
