The 2018 Vanderbilt University Research Fair provides undergraduate students a chance to showcase their research work in a campus wide celebration of undergraduate student research. The fair is sponsored by the Vanderbilt Undergraduate Summer Research Program (VUSRP) and the Littlejohn Family, the Office of Immersion Resources, the Office of the Provost, and the School of Engineering.
WHEN: 4:30pm – 6:30pm, Thursday, September 27th, 2018.
WHERE: Commodore Ballroom, Student Life Center
The 2018 online proposal form is available now.
The deadline to submit proposals will be Thursday, September 6, 2018 at 11:45 p.m.
Students will have the option of choosing to present a traditional poster or give a slide presentation from their personal device. Students wishing to give a slide presentation must get permission from their principal investigator (PI) and are not permitted to include videos, sound, or graphic demos. Only static photos and graphics are permitted.
Posters and presentations will be presented by students participating in several summer programs on campus, as well as students involved in research during the academic year. Students who have been involved in off-campus projects will also present.
We anticipate that many students will have already prepared a poster or presentation as part of their research programs. However, for those who need to prepare a poster or presentation especially for this event, detailed information on preparation is available here. Alternatively, with permission from their principal investigator, students can give a slide presentation from their personal device. Guidelines on presenting your poster and/or slides can be found here.
A competition will be held and awards given to students who give the best overall presentation of their research work.
