About the Conference

Students who participate in the Anthropology Scholars Week Conference present their research and anthropology papers and posters to peers, faculty, and alumni. It is an opportunity for students to gain experience as a conference presenter, share their interests, and engage in constructive dialogue. The conference consists of individual presentations, poster sessions, guest speakers, and Outstanding Student Research Awards. For those who cannot make events in person this year in AH 319, two of the conference sessions are being offered on Zoom.
