Posters at the Capitol
The 23rd Annual Posters-at-the-Capitol event is scheduled for March 6, 2025. The deadline for submission of student abstracts is December 9, 2024 with official acceptance and regrets to arrive no later than Jan. 17, 2025.
The purpose of Posters-at-the-Capitol is to help those responsible for higher education funding in Kentucky better understand the important role that undergraduate research plays in the education of our students. We encourage faculty mentoring student research to encourage their students to communicate with their hometown and university legislators at this event.
Our program is scheduled to run from 12 p.m. until 3:45 p.m., with special remarks in the Capitol Building Rotunda at 12:00 noon. Each participating institution can include up to twelve posters, each with up to two representing students.
