The Annual SURP+ Research Poster Symposium will occur from 11am to 1pm on Friday, Oct 16th.
Faculty, staff and students are invited to learn about student research at Cal Poly by engaging with over 150 research and creative activity projects completed in Summer 2026 as part of Cal Poly’s Summer Undergraduate Research Programs (SURPs).
Join us at Engineering Plaza! Posters will be in the ATL, Bonderson (197) and Building 192. Stop by anytime between 11am to 1pm to support student research and creative activity at Cal Poly. No RSVP is required.
Have a question? Please email studentresearch@calpoly.edu.
Light refreshments will be provided.
Student poster presenters worked alongside faculty/staff members and community partners throughout the summer, resulting in co-authored publications and university-industry-and-community collaborations.
Students will present their research findings during the event that is jointly organized by the Bailey College of Science & Mathematics, the College of Agriculture, Food & Environmental Sciences, the College of Engineering, the College of Liberal Arts, the Orfalea College of Business, and the Office of Student Research in collaboration with the California Central Coast Community College Collaborative (C6) (previously funded by the NSF).
Additional support is provided by the Office of Research at Cal Poly.
At least thirty-five community college researchers – from C6 campuses including: Allan Hancock College, Cabrillo College, Cuesta College, Monterey Peninsula College, Moorpark College, Oxnard College, Santa Barbara City College and Ventura College – will share their research as part of this event.
