   2. Registration fee
   3. Lodging
   4. Other relevant expenses

SECTION C: Abstracts

Each student (or co-presenters) should provide the following information:

1. Personal information: name, university ID, major, and expected graduation date for each author of the presentation.
2. Title and a brief abstract of the presentation (no longer than 250 words) that identifies the presenter’s research question, methodology and conclusions.

Your full proposal should be submitted electronically to Erika Zynda as a PDF. Your mentor's letter should be sent by email to the same address.
