Symposium Resources

Get your work noticed!

Now that you have made a decision to participate in the Symposium, you will need to prepare and submit an abstract for consideration.  An abstract is a paragraph that condenses a large research project into a structured summary description.  The abstract should be written in such a way that it provides the reader with a clear picture of your work.

General Considerations

• Submit your abstract online by February 17, 2023. Abstracts written for ºÚÁÏÍø’s Undergraduate Symposium on Research, Scholarship, and Creative Activity will be evaluated based upon:
• Clarity (concise, clearly written)
• Content (accurate description of the research problem, methods, results, conclusions, and references)
• Organization (concise introduction to the research problem, methods, results, conclusions, and references)

To ensure that you submit the best abstract and poster presentation that you can, check out the resources listed below:
