Dear colleagues,

 

The 2026 Undergraduate Research Showcase (URS) is fast approaching, and we’re thrilled to share that we’ve reached a record-breaking milestone: over 160 registered student participants!

 

To ensure a successful and enriching experience for all, we are urgently seeking additional volunteer judges to help evaluate student presentations.

 

Event details:

 

Date: Thursday, October 22, 2026

Location: UMSU University Centre (Multipurpose Rooms 210 to 224), Fort Garry campus

Time: The judging will occur between 10:00am and 2:30pm. Judges will be scheduled in 2-hour blocks based on their availability.

 

All judges will receive clear instructions and a scoring rubric in advance. Food and refreshments will be provided on-site.

 

If you are interested in volunteering as a judge, please fill out this link by Wednesday, October 14, 2026. 

 

Feel free to share this invitation with colleagues and peers who may also be interested in serving as judges.
