Images of Research Challenge 2026

And the winners are…


Images of Research invites UNB graduate students to submit a single image (along with expository text) that best captures their research or professional program experience. The goal is to provide our students with the opportunity to practice communicating their work in ways that are accessible to a more general audience, and this is otherwise known as knowledge mobilization.
