BCUR - the British Conference for Undergraduate Research

As part of the JRA program, each student is given the opportunity to present their work in a conference setting - a valuable experience for an undergraduate researcher.

We know the value of presenting your work in a conference setting, and we want every JRA to have the opportunity to do so. As a result we invite all JRAs to apply to attend BCUR, the British Conference for Undergraduate Research, an annual conference bringing together the very best junior researchers from across the country. As a part of BCUR, students are given the opportunity to present their work to fellow undergraduates, either by giving a presentation or by presenting a poster.

If you do choose to attend BCUR, the Sussex Researcher School will offer you support and assistance to ensure your trip is a success. Most recently BCUR took place on 9 & 10 April 2025 and was hosted by Newcastle University, so please see their for more details. The next BCUR event will be hosted by the University of Glasgow in 2026.
