The UCR Library is proud to present a special exhibit of research posters from the 2025 RISE/MARC Summer Symposium.

The Summer RISE Program is a 10-week paid summer research opportunity for UCR undergraduate students hosted by UCR’s College of Natural & Agricultural Sciences (CNAS) with collaboration from partners like the UCR Library and Maximizing Access to Research Careers (MARC) amongst others. 

Each year, the program brings together undergrads and pairs them with faculty mentors to engage in hands-on scientific inquiry. Over the summer, undergraduate students conduct original research and showcase their findings at the culminating RISE/MARC Symposium.

This exhibit features posters from the most recent symposium, held on August 27, 2025. The posters highlight student-led projects across science disciplines, reflecting the interdisciplinary science spirit the Summer RISE Program inspires.

We invite the campus community to explore the posters, celebrate the achievements of undergraduate student researchers, and learn more about the impact of the RISE program on cultivating the next generation of scientific leaders.
