On April 3, 2009, Loyola College in Maryland will host the tenth annual campus-wide forum highlighting undergraduate student research and scholarship. The goal of the colloquium is to encourage scholastic endeavors that focus on either the generation of new knowledge or creative integration of existing scholarship. Click here for a printable PDF of the application information. Application Requirements All currently enrolled undergraduate students of the College are eligible to make submissions to the Colloquium. The application form requires identification of a Loyola College faculty member who will agree to serve as a mentor in the application process. Please be sure that you have all the information in front of you before completing the form. You will be required to indicate if you wish to present a poster (or visual) or oral presentation at the Colloquium. A poster involves a display of the main points, ideas, and findings of the research, which the students refer to as they explain their work. An oral presentation is a more formal presentation within a classroom setting.
Competition Divisions Arts & Humanities Business Mathematical & Natural Sciences Social Sciences Demonstration/Performance Demonstration: Novel presentation of existing principles, laws, scholarship, or pedagogy. Performance: Public presentation of artistic or creative work/scholarship.
General Guidelines Note: Please read the instructions below carefully before proceeding to complete the online application form which is linked below. Also note that you can upload your proposal file only once. Since the Committee uses a blind review process, proposals (with the exception of the application form) are to be devoid of the applicant and mentor’s names. Applicants are reminded that if they refer to their own work or their mentor’s works in the references, the names should be omitted or marked out. Each student may submit only one proposal in each division each year. The committee accepts both individual and collaborative proposals. The application form and written proposal are to be submitted online at the USRSC website: http://www.loyola.edu/usrsc. The proposal must be in the form of a brief description of the project. Students should indicate if they wish to present a poster (or visual) or oral presentation at the Colloquium. A poster involves a display of the main points, ideas, and findings of the project. The posters are displayed throughout the colloquium venue for informal browsing with opportunities for individual discussion with the poster's author(s). An oral presentation is a more formal 10 minute presentation within a classroom setting.
