2024 Undergraduate Scholars Conference
The Undergraduate Scholars Conference celebrates student work of exceptional merit.
The conference will feature student presentations on original scholarly works that
go above and beyond classroom assignments. Students may choose to present in a traditional
slide format (PowerPoint, video slides, etc.) or a poster presentation (trifold poster).
Format of the Conference
- The day will begin with a plenary, featuring opening remarks and a guest speaker (an alumnus who has completed exceptional scholarly work in her field).
- The conference will then break into smaller concurrent sessions where students giving slide presentations will share their work in 15-minute slots
(with time left for questions and answers).
- Following the slide presentations, the students who have chosen the poster presentation
format will present their work.
- Reception: The event includes a reception during the poster presentation so that guests can
nibble and sip as they work their way around the room to engage the student presenters.

What's in it for you, the student?
You will have the experience of taking part in an academic-style conference, which
we believe will be a memorable experience for all those who participate. You will
be able to share the hard work you have done with the community and will be able to
put this on a resume for transfer applications. It is also our hope that you will
bring your presentation to the larger statewide honors scholarship conference in April,
or attend to take in its many offerings!
