2024 Presentation Formats

Both individual and group presentations are permitted with a maximum of three presenters allowed in each group. All submissions are peer-reviewed by committees composed of professors and graduate students. Presentation formats include: 

Give Me 5 Presentation (Virtual – Thursday, March 7)

Presenters will prepare a summary of a paper or research project and deliver it as a 5-minute powerpoint presentation. The committee is accepting projects that are currently in progress (i.e. theses, dissertations). The powerpoint presentation will have a maximum of 20 slides that advance automatically (15 seconds per slide). Powerpoint presentations will be sent in advance to the organizing committee via email, if the proposal is accepted. Presentations will occur one after another through Zoom on March 7th. This is a fantastic opportunity for students to gain experience providing a snapshot of their research to others in a non-threatening and academic environment. Participating in this presentation will provide you with a peer-reviewed publication for your CV. If you are interested in participating, please submit an abstract.

Workshops Presented by Professors and Students (In-Person – Friday – March 8)

Presenters design a 60-minute workshop to showcase a technique or methodology in an engaging and interactive session. Workshops are meant to promote the development of new knowledge and skills through participation and doing in a collaborative setting. Both students and professors are invited to run a workshop.

In-Person Poster Session (Friday – March 8)

Posters are collectively displayed in a large room and presented individually by their creators to attendees who stop by and want to discuss the poster contents. Presenters must be present at the Research Fair on the second day of the conference to discuss their study with attendees. Presenters are responsible for printing their posters. Posters must not exceed 1.50m x 1.50m (WxH).
