Submit your abstract through InfoReady by Tuesday, Feb. 20 at 11:59 p.m.
Abstract Guidelines
- Abstract deadline: Tuesday, Feb. 20, 2024 at 11:59 p.m.
- Abstracts should be no more than 250 words in length and must be submitted through the online abstract submission portal.
- Individual and group submissions are welcome.
- Only one abstract may be submitted by a lead author (someone else must be the lead author if you are part of multiple submissions).
- The online abstract submission form requires that you enter the title of your project (title case please, not all capitals), and the first/last name and email address of your UMass Lowell faculty or staff advisor.
- If you are submitting an abstract on behalf of a team, you will also be required to enter the first/last name(s), email address(es), and major(s)/program(s) of each of your co-presenters.
- Please only include co-applicants in the abstract submission if you are participating as a team. If you participating as an individual but would like to acknowledge supporters or contributors, you may include them in your video or poster.
- If you need to make changes to a submitted abstract, email: Student_Symposium@uml.edu to report that you wish to make a change. We will "reject" your original submission. You will then need to resubmit your revised abstract through the online abstract submission portal (in essence, it is as though it's a first-time submission - the reason: only one abstract submission per student is allowed).
- Upon submission of your abstract, the abstract submission portal will automatically send your abstract to your UMass Lowell project advisor for review and approval.
- Upon approval, the student who submitted the abstract will receive an email with instructions for how to submit their video or poster.
