SFASU Graduate Research Conference
A Graduate Research Conference will be held in April, 2013! The conference will include a variety of presentation options including 10-minute panel presentations, poster presentations, and a "Data Blitz" session, in which students may orally present their research findings in rapid-pace form. Submissions will be open to research projects completed up to a year prior, although students who are in the early stages of their research projects and have preliminary findings to discuss are also encouraged to submit. Students who do not have research projects that are ready for submission might also consider volunteering to assist with coordinating the event. To recognize exceptional research, two Dean's Research Awards will be offered, one for a panel presentation and one for a poster presentation.
The conference will be held on April 25th, 2013, in classrooms on the 4th floor of the Ferguson building.
To submit, a student will need to:
Complete a submission form as well as an abstract summarizing their work (see form for length requirements) and submit your documents to Dr. Perky Beisel via e-mail (pbeisel@sfasu.edu) or campus mail (Box 13013).
All submissions will need to be made by March 20th, 2013.
