Undergraduate Research Program

A lamp set on a book with the words The Undergraduate Research Program invites TSC students to showcase their original research and creative activities to the TSC community. Our annual Undergraduate Research Symposium is our signature event, and all TSC students are invited to participate. At the symposium, an interdisciplinary team of judges will select the best representation of well-developed research for recognition and opportunities to be awarded one of several cash prizes.

*Membership and participation in approved TSC student clubs, organizations, and academic teams is open to all currently enrolled students who have paid the Student Activity and Service Fee for the current semester in which the student is a member or requests to become a member of the student organization.

Join Us Wednesday, March 26, 2025, for the Sixth Annual Symposium How to Participate

Acknowledgments

The Undergraduate Research Symposium is the capstone event of Tallahassee State College's Undergraduate Research Program, which initially began in the Fall of 2018. We hope each year's symposium showcases the multitude of research activities in which TSC students participate throughout each academic year. 

This symposium and all other activities of the Undergraduate Research Program are coordinated by TSC's Undergraduate Research Council, an interdisciplinary group of faculty, staff, and administrators who volunteer their time and efforts toward making each symposium a success. A tremendous debt of gratitude is owed to them.

Thanks to our Sponsor

This year's Undergraduate Research Symposium would not have been possible without the very generous support of the TSC Foundation. A College Innovation Fund grant provided much of the financial support for this year's symposium, including refreshments, production of publicity materials, the printing of high-quality full-color posters, and the cost of printing this booklet. We are so grateful to all of the TSC Foundation's generous donors for their support of this worthy cause.
