The University of Akron Student Innovation Symposium invites the submission of research and scholarly projects from all academic disciplines. Students interested in participating in this event must submit a proposal or abstract for an oral or poster presentation.

 The organizers of the symposium would like to issue a special invitation to departments and faculty. Departments and faculty may propose their own session themes and/or participate in the Graduate School Fair that runs parallel to the presentations, from 10:00 to 12 noon. Last year there were over 200 student presenters. This is a great way for departments to showcase their collaborative research efforts and provide students with a professional opportunity that will enhance their resumes, graduate school applications and professional poise for new careers. The presentations will be judged and presenters will have the opportunity to win awards.
