Registration for Ohio University’s 2020 Student Expo is now open. This year’s Expo is Thursday, April 9, from 11:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the Convocation Center.

The annual event attracts more than 850 student presenters from dozens of disciplines. More than 2,000 students, faculty, staff, community members and local middle school and high school students attend to learn more about how Ohio University students engage in research, scholarship and creative activity.

Who Can Participate?

Participation is open to all undergraduate, graduate and medical students, as well as postdoctoral fellows, on the Athens and regional campuses.

What can be presented? Posters, exhibits, performances, film screenings and other presentation formats are welcome.

Are students eligible for awards? Awards will be given for the best presentations in each category: $150 (first prize) and $75 (second prize). Categories are limited to no more than 12 presentations and assigned by discipline. For sessions with undergraduate and post-degree students, judges may elect to give two first prizes (one each for an undergraduate and a post-degree student). In this case a seconnd place prize will not be awarded. In addition, several sponsors will offer special award categories.
