How do I participate in SURF?
Considering SURF?
Have students who are doing research, a project, creative work or participated in a summer research program? Or do you have end-of-the-semester presentations for your class? Consider showcasing their work at our biannual student conference, SURF. We welcome all forms of research and creative work from any discipline at any stage and it's a great way for your students to engage in professional development and prepare for future opportunities.
​
Students in summer programs or other external programs may register themselves using the link below. Otherwise, we ask that KapCC faculty register their students.
Format
-
Virtual SURF is a drop-in, synchronous event. In-person SURF features poster sessions as well as special sessions for other types of presentations. Presentations are usually an hour, but alternate plans are ok.
-
Poster sessions: Your students will present multiple times throughout their allotted time unless you indicated a special format.
-
Presentations: You will present for an allotted amount of time followed by a Q+A. SURF sessions are a minimum of an hour, so we as that solo presenters plan to present at least twice so people can attend your session.
-
Other session: Work with Li-Anne to custom build a session format that works for you.
-
You can find poster templates, logos, guides, and conference info on our website: https://kapcc-research.wixsite.com/surf. We will be adding more content as the conference gets closer.
