Graduate Student Poster Competition, registration open

The Graduate School Research Poster Competition will showcase and celebrate the top contributions from both doctoral and master’s student research across campus. This is an excellent opportunity for graduate students to gain experience presenting to both a research and non-specialist audience.

The event will take place on Wednesday, February 11, 2026, in the AMU Ballrooms from 1:00 p.m. until 4:00 p.m.

Register online by Monday, February 2. 

Doctoral and master’s level posters can be submitted by all graduate programs.

The purpose of the event is to:

  • Demonstrate the breadth of research and creative projects of our graduate students.
  • Promote graduate student engagement in research.
  • Encourage interaction and discussion with other graduate students, faculty, and peers.
  • Connect with and discuss graduate student research with a diverse campus audience.

The top three doctoral level posters and top three master’s level posters, as judged by a panel of judges, will receive award certificates and each will also receive up to $250 in research travel funds that can be used for research related travel through June 30, 2026.

Event is part of Graduate Student Appreciation Month in February 2026.
