Our bi-annual newsletter, URNA (Undergraduate Research News Australasia), publishes articles by students about their research, and also carries news from ACUR and from conferences as well as about upcoming events. Articles from university staff are also welcome, written in a style suitable for a general audience.

If you’d like to contribute, please contact the editor, Lucia Ravi, with an outline of what you’d like to say. Articles should be between 300 and 500 words in length, with an appealing title and a photograph (if active, all the better). Please download our Writing for URNA template.

Issue 26 of URNA will be published in early January 2025. We are currently seeking expressions of interest to contribute.  Final article contributions will be required by the 10th December 2024. 

URNA is available in hard copy and digital form, and is distributed to all members and Steering Committee members around the world, as well as to all universities in Australia and New Zealand.
