On Friday, May 20th, 2016, over 1000 students presented their work at the 19th Annual Undergraduate Research Symposium, held in Mary Gates Hall at the University of Washington. The event is hosted by the Undergraduate Research Program, which assists students who want to enhance their undergraduate experience with research. The Symposium is a celebration of student achievement, innovation, and academic excellence.

Congratulations to the Department of Economics undergraduate students who each presented research posters and talks on a wide array of topics:

Special thanks to Department of Economics faculty members Phil Brock, Rachel Heath, Melissa Knox, and Oksana Leukhina for serving as research mentors for these students.

Pursuing research and participating in the Undergraduate Research Symposium can be a highlight for future resumes and graduate school applications.
