2018 UMaine Student Symposium collecting submissions
Abstract submissions for the 2018 University of Maine Student Symposium on April 17 are now being accepted.
The UMaine Student Symposium, a campuswide celebration of achievement in student research and creative activity, will be held at the Cross Insurance Center in Bangor from 10 a.m.–5 p.m. The event, which is free and open to the public, is sponsored by UMaine’s Graduate Student Government and the Center for Undergraduate Research (CUGR).
Undergraduate and graduate students from all disciplines are encouraged to participate and share their research and creative activities through presentations, posters, performances, exhibits and roundtable discussions.
Last year’s symposium featured the work of more than 1,500 undergraduate and graduate students.
Business Connect, a networking event in collaboration with the Bangor Chamber of Commerce, will immediately follow the symposium from 5–7 p.m. at the Cross Insurance Center.
The deadline for student abstract submissions is 4 p.m. March 9.

This year, the symposium is part of Maine Impact Week, a series of campuswide events that showcase the depth and breadth of research and creativity at UMaine. More information about Maine Impact Week, including the Business Connect networking event, is online.
