Who We Are

The ARTeries is Ryerson University's liberal arts undergraduate research conference. This prestigious event promotes and recognizes academic excellence, and presents students with an opportunity to further engage with Ryerson University's academic community.

The conference, which is prepared and planned by students, and organized and sponsored by the Faculty of Arts, features the work of undergraduate students who exhibit distinction in social sciences and humanities research. The rigorous evaluation process involves a double-blind review panel made up of three Ryerson faculty members, and three upper level students.

Selected students work together with mentors who support presentation preparation, and upon completion of the AURC conference, they are presented a certificate of merit. Participating enhances the students’ resumes, and additionally gives students a chance to present important research to their peers and faculty members.

Why ARTeries?

The purpose of ARTeries is to give undergraduate students a platform to explore research of their choice and present their own ideas to their family, friends and Ryerson University network. Contributing to a richer campus culture, ARTeries invites and supports Ryerson students in their pursuit of both graduate studies, and the work force.

For all students wishing to submit a research paper or a work project to the 2017 ARTeries Undergraduate Research Conference (AURC), please see the Requirements page and check your email regularly for updates.
