Propose a student paper or poster

​

The CCPA is excited to host its 15th annual graduate and undergraduate student research presentation and poster competitions. Graduate and undergraduate students will compete separately in two categories: research paper presentations and posters. A panel of judges will evaluate the entries and present awards in each category at the end of the day on Saturday. Entries can be on any topic of archaeological interest and do not need to be specifically about Colorado archaeology. 

​

The competition provides students an opportunity to present research in a supportive environment, to meet and get feedback from professional archaeologists from across the state and beyond, and to engage with students and educators from other academic institutions. All students are invited to participate in the student paper and poster competitions. For more information, please contact INSERT NAME AND EMAIL
