The Annual Davis College Graduate Student Research Conference is a unique opportunity to recognize the many research accomplishments of our talented graduate students and to enhance their professional development. The Conference also provides a forum for the entire Davis College to share information and showcase the breadth and diversity of research activities undertaken by the students and faculty.

Students may choose to present either a 15-minute oral research paper or a research poster. Ph.D. and M.S. students will be judged separately in the two categories (1) oral presentation and (2) poster presentation. For each contest, monetary awards of $250 and $150 and $100 will be awarded for first, second and third place respectively, in both the paper and poster categories. Refreshments will be provided for participants throughout the day.
