Description

Join us for the 28th Annual Graduate & Professional Student Research Forum, a university-wide celebration of graduate and professional scholarship at UNLV. Hosted in collaboration by the Graduate & Professional Student Association (GPSA) and the Graduate College, this event highlights original research, creative projects, and innovation from across all disciplines. 

The forum features podium talks, poster session and creative expression presentations, highlighting the breadth and impact of graduate and professional student work. The day begins with the opening plenary – Inspiration, Innovation, Impact (I³) – including the Graduate College Medallion Awards and invited distinguished presentations from selected graduate students. It progresses into two waves of concurrent presentation sessions with over 200 graduate and professional students presenting. The afternoon concludes with the GPSA awards ceremony and announcement of the forum’s concurrent session presentation winners.

All UNLV students, faculty, staff, and members of the broader community are welcome to attend. Breakfast and lunch will be provided, with live music and opportunities for networking throughout the day.
