LCA Undergraduate Research Showcase

From food security to exploring evolution through dance, our students explore a range of subjects, stemming from their many curiosities, interests and passions.

The LCA Undergraduate Research Showcase presents the research of undergraduates from SF State's College of Liberal & Creative Arts (LCA) and reflects the unique diversity of disciplines within the College ranging from the humanities to the social sciences, to the creative arts. We welcome and celebrate the research work of all students, regardless of discipline and research experience.

2024 LCA Undergraduate Research Showcase

Please join us on Wednesday May 1, 2024 from 11 a.m. – 3:30 p.m. for the eighth annual LCA Undergraduate Research Showcase at the Seven Hills Conference Center on San Francisco State’s campus!

This is an opportunity for students to interact with peers, faculty, and others in a collegial setting to share their work and celebrate their accomplishments this semester.

  • Student work can be presented in the form of a research poster, demonstration, live performance, or a screening of a short film. Work can be from either the Fall or Spring semesters but must be from the 2023 – 2024 academic year.
  • Session times are 11 – 12:15, 12:30 – 1:45, and 2 – 3:15.
  • A research poster template is available for students who would like to present a research poster and need help getting started.
  • Students are welcome to attend our workshop on How to Design an Attention Grabbing Research Poster on Tuesday April 2, 2024 from 4 – 6 p.m. Details and registration here.
  • CURE will print student posters and deliver them to the conference site for FREE. Students can indicate that they plan to take advantage of this service on the registration form. A CURE member will follow-up with specific directions on how to submit the poster for printing. The deadline for free poster printing is April 19.
  • Food will be served throughout the day, and registered attendees will receive a prize raffle ticket upon check-in for a chance to win prizes. Two raffles will be held throughout the day. If your raffle ticket is selected, you must be present to claim your prize.
