Midwest Undergraduate Cognitive Science Conference - Announcement

The Indiana University Student Organization for Cognitive Science and the Indiana University Cognitive Science Program are pleased to announce the Midwest Undergraduate Cognitive Science Conference on the weekend of April 2-3, 2011 in Bloomington, Indiana.
This conference is organized to provide the next generation of cognitive scientists an opportunity to present their research to their peers from across the Midwest.
We are pleased to have two plenary speakers presenting their research:

Linda Smith, Professor of Psychology at Indiana University, will be delivering her plenary address on Saturday, April 2nd, 2011.

Larry Yaeger, Professor of Informatics at Indiana University, will be delivering his plenary address on Sunday, April 3rd, 2011.

Undergraduate students who wish to present a poster or talk should visit the submissions page on the MUCSC website. Here you will find more information on abstract requirements and the submission form. The deadline for submissions is February 4th, 2011. Abstracts will be peer-reviewed by the program committee and notifications will be sent via e-mail beginning February 28th, 2011.

Posters will be showcased during a 1.5 hour session and presenters must be present to answer questions. New to this year's conference, poster presenters have an opportunity to give a one minute teaser to their poster presentation prior to the poster session. The event, MUCSC RUCKUS (pronounced mʌ•kʌs rʌ•kʌs), will be a fast-paced, fun introduction to the numerous posters that will be presented by students across the Midwest. Participation is optional but encouraged for all poster participants. For more information, visit the MUCSC website or email cogsconf@indiana.edu.

Also new to this year's conference is the MUCSC Question of the Week, where students and faculty can engage in discussing various topics from all areas within cognitive science. In the coming weeks, we will request professors from the Midwest to submit questions that will be posted to our MUCSC Tumblr beginning in January. These questions can be commented on by anyone, but discussion will be moderated by the program committee. The most discussed questions will be featured at the conference on Sunday, April 3rd during a live discussion. ***If you would like to submit a question, we encourage you to reply to to us with your question. Most likely this question will be featured on our Tumblr! Thank you in advance for any submissions!***

Registration is free and required by all attendees. Students may register by visiting the registration page. Submitters of an abstract for a poster presentation or talk will automatically be registered as a conference attendee. Transportation and lodging arrangements will be the responsibility of the participants. Travel information and hotel suggestions are located on the MUCSC website.

Further details will be announced as the conference date grows closer. To be placed on our mailing list, send a message to listserv@indiana.edu with the body "subscribe cogsconf-l". If there are any questions please contact cogsconf@indiana.edu.

Thank you,

Hutton Honors College Annual IUB Undergraduate Symposium and Research Fair

The Hutton Honors College presents the 2008 Annual IUB Undergraduate Symposium and Research Fair, April 6th & 9th 2008

Deadline for abstracts & proposals Feb 1st, 2008
Submit to Assistant Dean Lynn Cochran (lcochran@indiana.edu)

The Hutton Honors College invites proposals and abstracts for our annual symposium and research fair. The symposium is to be held on Sunday, April 5th, at the Indiana Memorial Union from 9-5. Students who choose to present papers at the symposium will be asked to speak for ten minutes on their work, with a five minute Q&A to follow. Each presenter will be included on a panel of other students working in a similar field of study. Last year the topics included sociology, international issues, business & economics, science, the humanities & social sciences, and medicine & psychology. Every year the topics vary somewhat according to the abstracts submitted. A schedule of sessions will be forthcoming in March.

The research fair poster session will be held Wednesday, April 9th, in the Frangipani Room from 7-9 pm. Students will present posters describing the projects they have been working on. This year we hope to have judges for the first time for the poster fair.

All IU undergraduates are invited to participate in these two events, and all IU faculty and students will be invited to attend. The Hutton Honors College will hold workshops for students who would like to know more about paper or poster presentations. Whether you choose to present a paper at the symposium or a poster at the fair, or would like to participate in both events, we welcome one page abstracts by Feb 1st; please be sure to indicate whether you are interested in presenting a paper and/or a poster. If you choose to participate in both events, you will just submit one abstract. Please let me know at your earliest convenience if you will be submitting an abstract this year and we will send you an abstract template to make your submission easier. Also, be sure you have a faculty mentor for your project, as they will be asked to sign off on your abstract.

The symposium and fair are open to all disciplines, including (but not limited to): visual and performing arts, humanities, natural and physical sciences, mathematics, business and economics, education, and nursing.

This is a great opportunity to let others see the valuable work you have been doing during the past year, and to see what other students in a variety of fields are exploring here at IU. It is also a great chance for you to perfect your presentation skills and receive valuable feedback from faculty and interested colleagues. Don’t miss this opportunity for professional experience!
