There is time for fun. Things to do in Bozeman, Montana!

Lafayette has a long history with NCUR Year-after-year we send around 15-20 students Typically 40+ students apply for funding Make the case!

Two-Step Application Process Lafayette (internal) process All submissions are reviewed by Lafayette’s Academic Review Committee Those approved move to the next step NCUR (external) process Approved applications must be submitted directly to NCUR by the student

The Lafayette Process Apply to the Academic Research Committee (ARC) Deadline: October 11, 2019 “How will you benefit from presenting your work at NCUR?” Title Abstract (300 words) Your adviser ALSO needs to complete a separate Qualtrics form by October 11, 2019: Letter of support. Notification of ARC’s decision: week of November 4, 2019 by email ARC plans to make select applications from up to 15-20 students.

The Rest of the Process If your application is selected by the ARC, you must individually submit your abstract to NCUR NCUR submission deadline is December 6, 2019 Decisions from NCUR about your application will begin around January 28, 2019 and continue through mid February. Travel Departure is March 25 and return is March 28 This information is available on our NCUR webpage: You will get a Dean’s Excuse and faculty members have always been helpful. A couple of days before departure we’ll go over all the logistical details. https://academics.lafayette.edu/undergraduate-research/national-conference-on-undergraduate-research/

If your proposal is accepted Acceptance by NCUR is a commitment that you will attend or you will be asked to reimburse the college for all expenses that were paid on your behalf. Travel and lodging costs will be covered by the Office of the Provost Registration and meals not covered by the conference registration (up to $15 per meal, 2-3 meals anticipated) will be covered by the relevant department or program (please inform your department head or program chair of your participation in NCUR) Mike and Kathleen Dowd run the workshops. Usually one for oral presentations and one for posters. That will be in mid-March.

Spring Student Research Poster Session All students who submit their applications to ARC (whether or not you present at NCUR) are committed to present at the Spring Poster Session held on campus in April (typically one week following the conference). Please stay tuned for details regarding the Spring Poster Session.

FAQ Can I submit more than one abstract? Yes, two abstracts per primary author are permitted. There is no limit on the number of abstracts submitted per co-author. What is the most typical format of presentation at the conference? The most common formats are oral and poster presentations (50/50) . Will I be excused from my classes? Yes, participation in NCUR is excused by the Dean. Can I submit my abstract for approval if my research advisor is not associated with Lafayette College? Yes. What about if I won’t have my research completed by the time I need to submit it to the conference? This is often the case. You need to have a sensible understanding of the risk.

What’s Next? Title! Abstract!! Benefit!!! and your project mentor’s endorsement All submitted to Lafayette ARC by October 11, 2019 Notification is week of November 4, 2019 © UFS, inc.
