Underrepresented Students in STEM Symposium - Twin Cities (USSS-TC) will be taking place on Saturday, April 12, 2025! This is a free, in-person research symposium we are hosting specifically for BIPOC students in STEM in the Twin Cities to present their scientific research, a research proposal, or a scientific paper they are interested in (so no research experience needed!). The event in the past involved presentations on original research and research proposals, panel discussions on graduate school, and CV/resume review, among other topics. There is also an optional mentorship component in which undergraduates are paired with a graduate student or post-doc mentor to help them prepare their symposium materials!
We are reaching out to ask for your help in enriching our participant’s experience by sharing this symposium with your undergraduate students. The deadline to register and get paired with a mentor is February 24th and the deadline to submit the materials to present at the symposium (with or without a mentor) is March 28th. This is the perfect opportunity for students to practice their scientific presentation skills! Please encourage interested students to register for this symposium HERE even if they don’t have their materials ready yet! HERE is the link to submit the materials needed for the symposium.
Feel free to email us at ussstc@umn.edu with any questions!
Thanks,
The USSS-TC planning committee
