Graduate Research Colloquium

The Graduate Student Government (GSG) is excited to host its annual Graduate Research Colloquium on March 27 and 28, 2019 in the MUB Ballrooms.  This is a unique opportunity for graduate students to practice their oral and/or poster presentation skills.  Poster presentations will occur on March 27 and oral presentations will occur over both days of the colloquium.  Oral presentations are limited to 15 minutes followed by a few minutes for questions.  The top three poster and oral presentations will be announced at the GRC’s Awards banquet.
 
There are still many presentation slots available!  Registrations are due by 11:59 pm on Wednesday February 20, 2019 via the following Google form
Another vital component of this event has always been recruiting faculty members to serve as judges for the presentations.  The constructive feedback received by presenters makes this a valuable learning experience.  If you have a couple free hours in your schedule please consider donating that time to help GSG give the best GRC experience possible this year.  GSG will work to schedule your judging times according to your schedule’s availability.  If you are interested please fill out the following Google form
