NORTH ADAMS, Mass.— On Thursday April 21, 2022, Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts (MCLA) will hold the 20th Annual Undergraduate Research Conference (URC) to recognize students for their work and dedication in producing academic projects. 

 

This all-day event will feature a student poster session, individual presentations, and group work that encompasses the time and dedication MCLA's students have put into their academic endeavors in the past academic year. 

 

The undergraduate research experience at MCLA encompasses a wide range of activities, from formal clinical studies to managing a publication like the MCLA Beacon, to artistic works and beyond.
