Tips for Presenters

• Presentations should be 10 minutes maximum 
• Expect to present to an audience outside of your discipline. Sessions are not organized by discipline, as presenters choose their own presentation time slots based on their availability. 
• Written feedback from Active Listeners is not guaranteed. Be sure to take time to chat with your assigned Active Listeners on the day of the event. Any written feedback submitted to us will be sent out via email about two weeks after the event. 
• Visit the Active Listeners page to see what they will be looking for in presentations.  

Presentation Templates

• Optional URS Symposium templates are available to student presenters.
• Use of a URS Symposium template is not required to participate in the URS Symposium.
• Consult with your faculty advisor on an appropriate template for your presentation (e.g., some research groups may have their own special templates or format). 
• For more information on the Condensed Poster Presentation Template, watch this video about creating a better research poster in less time.

• UGR will provide poster printing vouchers for up to 100 students on a first-come, first-served basis through the Technology Services help desk in Langford A, Room 122.
