Every year, a group of 5-8 undergraduates from Syracuse University join students from the 14 other institutions in the ACC to showcase their research or creative work, learn from peers at other colleges and universities, and network among scholars and students at the conference.
The MoM Conference celebrates undergraduate research and provides an excellent opportunity for sharing innovative work.
