The GPSS at Iowa State University hosts its 11th annual Graduate student research conference in the Memorial Union all day on Wednesday, April 12, 2023. The Conference provides an opportunity for ISU graduates to share their research and scholarship with the larger ISU community. 

This Conference continues GPSS’s effort to cultivate our graduate community across all the Colleges and departments at Iowa State University. This year includes a focus on interdisciplinary research, graduate student organizations, ISU services, and socializing across the Colleges to build community for our mental wellbeing. We want to show the value graduate students and researchers and to offer a potential vision for re-imagining the future of the graduate community here at ISU. ​

Ultimately, we want to ask, how can we use current and pressing challenges as opportunities to rebuild and reinvent our graduate community to better support each other’s research and graduate way of life?

Thanks to our Sponsors!!
