Student Research & Creative Scholarship Showcase

The Student Research & Creative Scholarship Showcase celebrates the excellent academic work of UAA's students across an interdisciplinary spectrum of arts and humanities, social sciences, business, health, education, applied sciences, engineering, and natural sciences. The 2022 Showcase is tentatively being held in-person, with a virtual component included, though the Honors College reserves the right to convert to a fully virtual format if necessary. Students should prepare for an interactive component, however, whether in-person or virtual. 

Students are asked to submit a 36"x24" conference poster showcasing the best of their academic work, along with a pre-recorded presentation of that poster! Below you will find information on what we are asking students to include with their posters, the Submission Form, and numerous resources to help with creating effective and memorable conference posters! Please note: Group submissions are accepted - there is a spot on the submission form to indicate it is a group effort.
