If you have completed your research project or have reached a significant milestone on the way toward publishable work, you can give a 10-minute oral presentation of your research. There will be five minutes for Q&A from the session judges after each presentation. If your project involves human subjects and is subject to IRB approval, you will need to have received IRB approval for your project prior to submitting your abstract.

听

If you have a completed research project, your project is still underway, or if it is a part of a larger project, you can present the status of your contribution to the work in a poster format. A poster presentation presents all of the components of a research project on one canvas. A poster can cover a completed project, a portion of a larger project, or a project still underway. Session judges will walk around and ask student presenters to provide an overview of their project using their posters. Students will also be able to share their research with attendees as they walk around and visit posters.

A group of students from the same class, lab, etc. can propose a symposium together! Just like in the 10-minute oral presentation category, each participant will give a 10-minute oral presentation and then have 5 minutes for Q&A. The difference will be that the presentations in the Symposium session will all be related in some way. The members of a symposium will decide ahead of time whether they would like their session to be part of the judged competition or to not take part in the competition aspect of the conference. Symposia will include 4-6 oral presentations on the same project, topic, or theme.

听

If you are just getting started on your project, or are new to research programs, you can discuss the work you are doing in a roundtable format. Students will participate in a discussion moderated by a faculty or staff member during which they will share an overview of their work and receive feedback on how to move forward with their project.

Developmental Project Sessions will be designated for projects that were conducted for class assignments or similar learning experiences and were not intended to contribute to generalizable research. Developmental projects may be at any stage of completion. Students presenting developmental projects will have the choice of a 10-minute oral or poster presentation.

* Note: Roundtable and developmental project presentations are not eligible to be selected for awards and will not be eligible to be chosen to compete in the CSU Statewide competition.

The CSU-wide competition will showcase excellent research conducted by CSU undergraduate and graduate students in the full range of academic programs offered by the CSU. Student participants will make oral presentations before juries of professional experts from major corporations, foundations, public agencies, colleges, and universities in California. The 41st Annual CSU Student Research Competition will be hosted by California State University San Marcos from April 14-17, 2027.

If you wish to be considered for the CSU Student Research Competition, please indicate at the end of the SRC 2027 application. Note: only individual presentations in the first 3 categories (10-minute oral, poster, and symposium) are eligible to compete at the Statewide Competition; roundtable and developmental project presenters are not eligible to compete.
