OK-INBRE and Oklahoma Research Events

Research Day at the Capitol
March 19, 2024
The 2024 Research Day at the Capitol was established 29 years ago to showcase the outstanding undergraduate research being conducted at Oklahoma’s colleges and universities in the areas of science (including social science), technology, engineering, and mathematics. Students are nominated by their institutions' leadership to participate in the prestigious event, which is sponsored by the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education, the Oklahoma Established Program to Stimulate Competitive Research (OK EPSCoR), and the National Science Foundation.  Nominated students present their research to State Legislators and the public in the State Capitol's rotunda during the legislative session. In addition, students’ posters and oral presentations are competitively judged by an independent panel; winners are announced at the conclusion of Research Day, during an awards ceremony at the Capitol.

Oklahoma Research Day is a premier annual event celebrating student and faculty research, creative, and scholarly activities. The event has grown in numbers and in stature with contributions from all Oklahoma institutions of higher education, including many collaborative contributions from national and international academic and research institutions. Hundreds of students, faculty, and guests register to attend each year. The 2023 event will be hosted by the University of Central Oklahoma in Edmond, OK.  OK-INBRE is proud to be a sponsor of this annual event that promotes cross-campus and cross-disciplinary research among all institutions of higher learning in the State of Oklahoma. The event also seeks to encourage networking among researchers and interchange of ideas among those studying and researching in their respective academic disciplines.
