Campus Research Month

Campus Research Month will be celebrated across our campus throughout the month of April.

Campus Research Month Events-April 2026

Each academic discipline represented across campus is encouraged to host student or faculty oral research presentation events and to invite guest researchers appropriate for their discipline to speak at their leisure. Any such events can be listed and promoted through the Campus Research Month website and the library's social media. To send in your event information and/or statistics for inclusion in Campus Research Month, please email bfhoward@southern.edu. We will help spread the word across campus of the amazing research or projects your discipline is working on!

Any Campus Research Month/Day events and deadlines can be viewed here:

Campus Research Day Registration

Proposals are due by March 26, 2026. Please note that citation information and files submitted to Campus Research Day will be publicly available on Knowledge Exchange. Do NOT attach a file if you do not wish it to be made public. Note that poster session competitors should expect to upload a copy of their poster publicly.

Interdisciplinary Poster Sessions

All students who wish to present a poster during Campus Research Day are welcome to submit a poster presentation proposal for inclusion in the program. All such students will be included in the program, provided they register by the deadline. The morning poster session will be held from 9 AM to 10:45 AM in the Fellowship Hall of Collegedale Seventh-day Adventist Church. The afternoon poster session will be held from 2 PM to 3:345 PM in the Fellowship Hall of Collegedale Seventh-day Adventist Church. Each poster session will include an optional competition for those who wish to compete, with prizes of $300 (1st prize), $200 (2nd prize), and $100 (3rd prize). Competitors should upload a copy of their poster online, prepare high-quality posters, and be ready to give a five-minute summary of their research to the session's judges.

The recommended poster for the Campus Research Day poster session would be a 36”x48” trifold poster or a 24"x36" foam poster. A small bookstand (one per poster) will be provided if a foam poster of the recommended dimensions is utilized. The supervising professor should send in poster printing requests in bulk if more than one student is supervised by the same professor to Quick Print, if free printing is desired. For more information on printing with Quick Print, please contact them at qprint@southern.edu. Students/professors are responsible for providing their own poster.

For information regarding printing your poster with our campus partner QuickPrint, please view the Quickprint Informative Guidelines. Participants or professors should contact Quick Print in advance to ensure their printing needs can be met. Printing requests for Campus Research Day must be received by QuickPrint's deadline in order to be ready by the event.
