About the Conference

So much great work is created through a process. That process might involve questioning, discovering, retooling, and navigating challenges. This conference celebrates the journey of creative, research, and community engagement. 

We welcome presentations on research projects, community engagement, and creative activities that are either complete or works in progress, meaning that we welcome presentations on work at various stages, from those just starting out and looking for feedback to those with conclusions and results they want to share. These projects may be, for example, a research study on water quality, an exploration of how you are preparing for a musical performance, or reflections on your leadership of a student group.

We welcome presentations lasting 7-10 minutes using PowerPoint or similar formats. 

The Big Picture

Our theme this year is, "The Big Picture." Each presentation will need to address in some way the broader cultural, environmental, political, scientific, and/or social contexts that make your project meaningful and timely to a general audience of your peers. 

Your presentation should also share the methods you're using or thinking about using to explore these issues, and any challenges you have encountered or anticipate encountering along the way.

A Celebration Multidisciplinary Connections

This conference also celebrates multidisciplinary connections. We welcome undergraduate students of all years, fields, and majors. We especially encourage first-year honors students to attend and/or present works in progress at this conference as a way to connect with other students, faculty, and staff who share your interests. 

Presentations will be grouped into panels on related topics across disciplines. Presenters will also have the opportunity to hone their presentation skills in advance of the conference through preparatory workshops.
