The 2nd World Congress on Undergraduate Research (WCUR)
Building on the success of the 1st World Congress on Undergraduate Research in Doha (Qatar, November 2016), the World CUR 2019 will take place at Carl von Ossietzky University Oldenburg, Germany, from 23 – 25 May, 2019. The Office of Undergraduate Research encourages NC State undergraduate researchers to apply to present at this global conference. 
Congress for Students
The Congress will be an opportunity for global dialogue across many different fields of inquiry. Students across the world are invited to share their research, discuss global issues, create international research partnerships, and to enjoy and explore the northwest of Germany.
All Disciplines Welcome
We welcome scientific papers, creative arts pieces, scholarship in science, humanities, and social sciences from undergraduate students. Bachelor theses are also welcome as long as they are not older than one year. Register now to submit your research abstract »
Funding Support for Travel
NC State undergraduate students who are accepted to present may apply for an OUR Travel Grant for up to $500 to help defer some of the travel costs. Additionally, NC State students who are accepted to present will have their registrations covered by our office. All other accommodations and travel will be the responsibility of the student.
