Information for Students, Prospective Students, Alumni, Employers, and Other Guests

The purpose of the Student Academic Conference is to showcase the work and talent of Minnesota State University Moorhead students through presentations, posters, and creative works at a one day conference held at MSUM in April annually. All students are encouraged to submit presentation applications. We strive to accommodate all students who wish to present. The university community, parents, friends, prospective students, alumni, and employers are welcome to attend the conference to witness the excitement of intellectual exchanges among our students. 

If you are a high school student, this is a great opportunity for you to see various presentations from fields you may be considering studying and what students are doing in their academic field.
