Minnesota State University Moorhead's Student Academic Conference provides student researchers with the opportunity to present their work to faculty, administration, peers, and the general public in a formal academic setting.
Students showcase their work in panel discussions, workshops, multimedia presentations, displays, and demonstrations throughout the Comstock Memorial Union. The Conference's increasing popularity has necessitated moving some of the presentations to Livingston Lord Library.
