The Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering Symposium (ISE) at UNH is a premier event showcasing innovative undergraduate research. Students address real-world challenges while developing skills in problem solving, project management, and teamwork. Faculty mentors guide students throughout the process, and industry and community partners serve as judges, helping recognize the most innovative and impactful projects. The symposium celebrates students’ academic achievements and highlights the creativity and collaboration that prepare them for future careers and continued discovery.
The ISE Symposium will be held on Wednesday, April 22, in the Whittemore Center Arena. The program will feature more than 500 students presenting their research to judges, faculty, attendees, and peers through posters and demonstrations. Projects span a wide range of disciplines, including earth, environmental, biological, computer, and physical sciences; bioengineering; chemical, civil, environmental, ocean, mechanical, electrical, and computer engineering; mathematics and statistics; physics; and chemistry.
We invite you to join us in celebrating the impressive scholarly achievements of our students.

The Interdisciplinary Science and Engineering Symposium has grown to become one of the marquee events in the UNH Undergraduate Research Conference. Bringing the URC ISE to fruition is the result of a collaborative effort of many UNH faculty and staff members as well as members of industry and alumni who serve as judges and volunteers. Thank you to those individuals, campus departments and companies for making the URC ISE a success.
Thank you to the Research Advisers from faculty and industry for supporting over 500 students in their research efforts. Thank you to our 100+ Judges for spending the day with our students and providing them invaluable feedback.
