The National Forum for Black Public Administrators’ Student Research Poster Contest will be held on Thursday, April 4, 2024, in Baltimore, Maryland.
The University of Baltimore College of Public Affairs is proud to be hosting the 2024 FORUM poster contest. This competition recognizes research conducted by students at all undergraduate, masters, and doctorate levels. All students are encouraged to submit for this competition. In order to be eligible for the poster contest, all applicants must be currently enrolled in a traditional four-year college or university with at least one academic semester remaining after April 2024. All payments will be made to the university.
In less than 500 words, poster abstracts should summarize the following: 1) the research question/problem statement; 2) the theory and hypothesis; 3) the research methods; 4) the findings; and 5) the research implications. Submissions should be limited to research conducted during your time as a student. Research that incorporates the effort of a professor or a professional researcher (e.g., think tanks) is prohibited. You may only submit one poster abstract in which you are the lead/presenter. If your name will be affiliated with multiple abstract submissions, you can only select one project that you will serve as the lead presenter.
