Presentation applications are due March 1st, 2024.
What We are Looking For
What We are Looking For
We are seeking engaging student presenters that look to share their ideas and projects with other University students in the Shenandoah valley. Given the current state of the world, chances are, you are a young person concerned about the environment and the people who live in it. What have you done on your campus to help further the UN SDGs? Or alternatively, how has your research helped to further the UN Sustainable Development goals (for more information, visit https://sdgs.un.org/goals)? Let us know, and following your acceptance, we will help you perfect your presentation.
NOTE: We are hoping to have students serve as the primary presenters. However, the research does not have to be conducted by a student alone. If a student is involved with a professor's research or researching under a supervising professor, then we would invite that student to present with the help of the professor.
