Timeline

Each student project—whether a poster or oral presentation—must be registered by April 13 in order to participate in HORIZONS. The actual poster/presentation itself will be submitted later. If multiple students are presenting a project, every student involved must still register. Register via the Project Registration Form.

The faculty mentor who supervised the project will be notified if one of their students registered for HORIZONS presentation. If the faculty mentor has any questions or concerns, they should notifiy the Vovis Center as soon as possible, or at latest by April 20. The mentor will be sent an email requesting their approval when the student submits the Project Registration Form.

Richter Ambassadors -- students who have received multiple Richter grants and have already presented at HORIZONS -- are available to support student presenters throughout the winter and spring term. Students can ask Richter Ambassadors questions specific to their presentations, learn best practices for poster and presentation creation, and how to avoid common mistakes. Sign up to meet with a Richter Ambassador.

Posters must be submitted via the Project Submission Form by May 11 if you wish for Vovis Center to print the poster. If you choose to print on your own, you must bring the printed poster to the Vovis Center by May 13 at 4pm for it to be included in the HORIZONS event on May 16.

Presentations must be submitted via the Project Submission Form by May 11 in order for the Vovis Center to have them loaded and ready in your assigned presentation room on the day of HORIZONS. Specific instructions can be found on the Oral Presentations webpage.

The HORIZONS event will be held in Alumni Hall and across campus on Friday, May 16. See the Plan for the Day webpage for all the details!

Students who participated in HORIZONS are asked to complete a brief survey about their experience by May 21 in order to continue improving the HORIZONS symposium.
