Performing arts majors present research and creativity

Several School of Music, Theatre, and Dance students creative work was selected for Celebrate Undergraduate Research and Creativity (CURC). This year, the annual event is being held online and is open for viewing. Presented in this gallery are more than 225 posters showcasing the fantastic work that CSU undergraduates from all eight colleges are doing on a range of topics including music, mosquitoes, vaccines, beets, self-image, style, and everything in-between.

Culminating in an awards ceremony that recognizes all participants and honors awards winners from events throughout the year, this juried showcase features outstanding performers from every discipline.
