This one-day research symposium will feature oral presentations and a poster fair presented by our faculty, staff and students – celebrating the outstanding research and scholarly work happening in our classrooms and across campus.

Call for Proposals

Students, faculty and staff are invited to submit proposals to present research projects in the form of a poster or 15-20 minute presentation. Proposals can be based in any field of research, including pedagogical scholarship on teaching and learning. 

This is an excellent opportunity for students to present their work beyond the classroom and share the stage with instructors. Proposals may be submitted individually or as a group, and projects may be from previous semesters or current, in-progress work. Your research does not need to be complete—this is a chance to showcase your ideas and receive valuable feedback.

Two Awards for Outstanding Student Research will be presented:

  • One for a student presentation
  • One for a student poster

Students interested in presenting must submit a proposal using this form by Friday, February 6. The organizing committee will review all submissions, and applicants will be notified of decisions by February 27.
