Undergraduate Honors Symposium - March 21, 2025

The 25th Annual Undergraduate Honors Symposium will be held on March 21, 2025 at UNC-Greensboro. Paper submissions are due December 16, 2024 at 11:45 p.m.

The Honors Symposium offers outstanding undergraduates the opportunity to participate in a hybrid academic conference with concurrent sessions. We welcome submissions from all UNC Greensboro undergraduate students or any Honors student from a North Carolina Honors Program or Honors College. Papers should be research-based and can be written in any discipline, but presentations should be geared toward a general audience. Students may submit more than one paper for consideration to the Symposium. A group of students may also submit a presentation. December 2024 UNCG graduates are also allowed to submit papers for consideration to the Symposium. 

Submit your paper for consideration via MS Forms by December 16, 2024 at 11:45 p.m. Students should plan 15-minute presentation and Q&A to follow. 

The Honors Symposium Prizes, sponsored by UNC Greensboro’s Lloyd International Honors College, are awarded for outstanding presentations at the Symposium. This year prizes dedicated to the encouragement of high-quality academic work will include monetary awards of $250 for the top presentation in one category for Visiting Honors students and in two categories for UNCG students: Arts & Humanities, and Sciences & Professional Schools. Award decisions will be based on the presentation of the papers at the Symposium. 

There is no registration cost to present or attend. We encourage friends and family to attend as audience members. For more information about the Symposium, students and faculty may contact honorscollege@uncg.edu
