Illinois Events

Not sure where to start with your abstract or how to best represent your research? The Writers Workshop will discuss components of an effective abstract, review examples across fields, and ask you to practice writing your own based on an in-session prompt. We encourage students applying to the Undergraduate Research Symposium to register for this event. The advice will also be applicable to abstracts for other conferences, class assignments, journal submissions, and more. This event is co-sponsored by the Writers Workshop and Office of Undergraduate Research.

This presentation will be held via Zoom and is open to all current U of I affiliates (students, faculty, and staff). You will need to be logged into your Illinois Zoom account to join. 

Please register with your Illinois email by March 3 to receive the Zoom details on the morning of the event. If you register on the day of, please email wow@illinois.edu immediately to request the Zoom details - we will do our best to get them to you prior to the event.

All registrants will receive access to the presentation materials via email the following business day. Presentations will not be recorded, though a recent recording may be available upon request.
