ND EPSCoR invites all faculty, students, and postdoctoral fellows from North Dakota (ND) institutions of higher education to attend our 2025 ND EPSCoR Annual State Conference. This one-day, statewide conference to be held at the NDSU Memorial Union in Fargo on October 21, 2025, is intended for all ND faculty, post-doctoral fellows, graduate and undergraduate students, and STEM professionals.
The conference's focus is to provide opportunities to share research results and promote opportunities for collaboration in STEM fields. We encourage presentations and posters on topics related to fundamental and applied research, broader impacts, broadening participation, K-20 STEM education, and workforce development. We encourage faculty who are newcomers to EPSCoR programs to engage to learn more about statewide collaboration opportunities.
Call for Oral and Poster Presentation Abstracts
Abstracts for oral or poster presentations on any STEM topic including research, broader impacts, broadening participation, workforce development, and education may be submitted by undergraduate and graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and faculty from any educational institution in ND. Abstract submissions from researchers and students supported by the NSF RII Track-1 project, ND-ACES, other NSF EPSCoR Programs (i.e., TCUP, Track-2, and Track-4), and EPSCoR-like programs are highly encouraged.
