The Graduate Student Symposium is an all day event where graduate students from different academic departments/disciplines present conference posters and papers before an audience comprising of other students and faculty members. Based on the assessment of a panel of judges/faculty members, one student from each academic unit will be awarded a cash prize. The Graduate Students Council will advertise the event (via UofL Today and mailing lists). You are highly encouraged to submit a proposal for a paper or poster and take advantage of this opportunity on campus. In past years, this event has been a great success and you can expect this to be a good opportunity to network and share ideas with other graduate students and faculty members who will also be invited to the event.
