2025 Conference Registration and Abstract Submission Now Open!

Thank you for your interest in the 18th Annual Graduate Student Regional Research Conference! "Crossing Divides: A Multidisciplinary Approach to Today's Issues" is focused on welcoming research of all types. The conference will occur on March 28-29 on the University of Louisville Belknap Campus.

The Graduate Student Council and the Graduate School invite graduate students from the University of Louisville and graduate students from regional universities to share their research at the annual Graduate Student Regional Research Conference (GSRRC). Now in its 18th year, the GSRRC offers graduate students an opportunity to share their research with their peers through oral talks and poster presentations, while gaining valuable experience in presenting their work to an interdisciplinary audience. Research can take many forms, and all are encouraged to attend. We hope to see a wide range of research represented as we engage in meaningful networking.

About Conference Registration

There is no fee to present, attend, or register for the conference. A single form is used for registration and abstract submission. If you will be presenting, please have your title and abstract ready when registering. Registration will close January 31st.

About the Call for Abstracts

We welcome all types of research methods including, but not limited to, observational studies, experimental, studies, case studies, literature reviews, artistic creations and showcases. The recommended length for abstracts is 300 words. All graduate students are invited to present their research via an oral talk and/or poster presentation. Oral talks are expected to be 10 minutes (8-minute presentation with 2 minutes for questions).
