What is the purpose of the conference?
The Undergraduate Student Research and Creativity Conference
provides students the opportunity to present their recent
work, whether that be a capstone project or another
project. Friends, fellow students, professors, and
interested people from outside the university are welcome to
attend and learn from the presentations. By presenting, you
will receive valuable feedback from the wider university
community. Of course, your participation would be an
impressive entry on your resume. |
Who can participate in the
conference?
The conference is open to anyone to attend. The steering
committee hopes that students, faculty, and members of the
tri-states community will come and see the excellent work
going on at Marshall University. Since the conference is
sponsored by the College of Liberal Arts, the presenters
must be undergraduate, liberal arts majors (or education
majors with a liberal arts focus).
|
How long does a presentation need to be?
Each presentation should be approximately 15 minutes long,
followed by a 5 minute question and answer period. Special
panels and group presentations can be modified accordingly.
|
How do I sign up to
participate?
Complete
application forms are available on this website. Follow
the directions for submitting a proposal and the
presentations committee will contact you as soon as
possible.
|
What types of presentations will be allowed?
One of the purposes of this conference is to allow for
greater interdisciplinary research within the College of
Liberal Arts. Therefore, the presentations committee will be
very flexible in accepting and scheduling presentations. Any
research or other type of creative work will be considered.
If you need some suggestions on possible topics, speak with
a faculty mentor. |
Can I present at more than
one session?
Assuming scheduling permits, you can present your work in
two separate sessions (or in the poster session). Please
fill out an application for each presentation, and note on
each that you would like them scheduled at separate times.
