General Information for All Presenters

The Undergraduate Research Conference is a professional event. Presenters should look and dress professionally. During your assigned session you will be standing by your poster, art or interactive exhibit for one hour. Comfortable shoes are advised.

Presenters are assigned to the First Session at 12:15-1:15 p.m. or the Second Session at 1:15-2:15 p.m. You will be notified of your presentation time and location by April 15 or you can view the online conference program after April 15 on the Undergraduate Research Conference website.

You are expected to be at your exhibit for the duration of your presentation time. We encourage you to attend the other presentation sessions to view the research and creative work of your fellow students. Presenters should be prepared to discuss their project and to answer questions during their assigned time.
