Undergraduate or graduate students currently enrolled at any CSU campus and alumni/alumnae who received their degrees in winter, spring, summer or fall 2024 or winter 2025 are eligible.
Note: You are welcome to submit projects completed with a faculty or staff member. You may also submit projects with multiple student authors.
Please note: An individual student is limited to the submission of two projects to the 2024 competition - one as primary author and one as a secondary author or two as secondary author.
Presentations from all disciplines are welcome. The ten disciplinary categories are as follows:

There will be separate undergraduate and graduate divisions for each category (unless a division has four or fewer entrants, in which case the divisions may be combined).
The research/creative activity presented should be appropriate to the student’s discipline and career goals. Proprietary research is excluded. All research must comply with all applicable policies and regulations. Research that involves human or animal subjects must have appropriate institutional review.
Please check back in Fall 2024 for details on how to apply for the 2025 CSU Student Research Competition!
Students will present their work orally before a jury and an audience. Students will compete by discipline category and, typically, by division (undergraduate/graduate).
Student presenters will have 10 minutes for an oral presentation of their work and five minutes to listen and respond to juror and audience questions. It is expected that a student will not make a presentation by simply reading directly from the written summary. In cases in which entries are multi-author, we recommend that oral presentations be made by no more than two students, with any additional group members, as relevant, responding to juror and audience questions.
All entrants may use audiovisual materials as appropriate, and presenters are encouraged to use delivery techniques that promote interaction with the audience.
Entrants in the Creative Arts and Design category may present an audio and/or visual recording of a performance they have given or a work they have created; their oral presentation should focus on the rationale and historical context underlying their interpretation of the material.
Each entry (oral presentation plus written summary) will be judged on the following:
- Clarity of purpose
- Appropriateness of methodology
- Interpretation of results
- Value of the research or creative activity
- Ability of the presenter to articulate the research or creative activity
- Organization of the material presented
- Presenter’s ability to address questions from the jury and general audience
