As a UGRC organised conference which is led by the Associate Provost for Undergraduate Education, the REx Conference (formerly known as UREC) is a platform of encouragement and motivation for aspiring student researchers who are committed to NUS undergraduate research to network and learn from each other. It offers an opportunity for NUS undergraduate students to discuss their perspectives with fellow undergraduates and accomplished researchers as they continue to explore new innovations and approaches towards research learning.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In January 2023, the Undergraduate Research Coordinating team launched the Research Experience programme, otherwise known as REx to enhance the existing Undergraduate Research Opportunities Programme (UROP) and the Undergraduate Research Opportunities Programme in Science (UROPS) by deepening the experience of UROP in STEM disciplines, attracting more professors and students in non-STEM disciplines to offer UROP and creating more opportunities for students to have rewarding experiences of research and research impact. Developing undergraduate research remains a work in progress and one such effort in pursuit of encouraging more undergraduate students to do research is the REx Conference. This inaugural conference seeks to promote sharing and discussion of ideas in making undergraduate research as a versatile and holistic learning experience.<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
