Students Show Creative Work and Research at Annual Event

One hundred thirty-nine SUNY Oneonta students participated in the 2025 Student Research and Creative Activity (SRCA) showcase on April 16 in the Hunt Union Ballroom.

The annual SRCA showcase gives students the chance to share their scholarly and creative work with the campus community through academic conference-style presentation sessions. This year's single-day event featured 109 projects, making it one of the largest showcases of Student Research and Creative Activity ever presented at SUNY Oneonta.

Students presented research for completed and ongoing projects on topics representing a wide variety of academic disciplines such as science, history and art. Projects were completed under the mentorship of 54 faculty sponsors. Twenty-nine of the 109 projects received grants through the Student Grant Program for Research and Creative Activity, funded by the University Foundation and the SUNY Oneonta Alumni Association.

"This has been another great celebration of the research, scholarship, and creative activities our students have undertaken," said Associate Director of Scholarly Activities Audrey Porsche, whose office coordinates the SRCA showcase. "It's made possible in part, through charitable gifts to the University Foundation and Alumni Association. The showcase provides a great opportunity for our students to share what they have accomplished alongside their faculty sponsors. These students are getting research and creative experiences that will help them post-graduation, whether they are going on to graduate school, internships or starting their careers. It's all great experiential learning in action!"
