Abstract Submissions for Undergraduate Research Day will be accepted via the below form through 11:59 p.m. on Sunday, April 27, 2025. No email submissions will be accepted.
Guidelines
- An abstract of ongoing and updated research projects is acceptable for submission and presentation.
- Each student may submit one abstract as the first author.
- There is no limit to the number of times a student may appear as co-author on abstracts.
- An abstract may only be submitted once. Duplicate abstracts (reporting the same data) that are submitted under a different title or author will be vetted and will not be considered.
- Please proof-read your abstract carefully for formatting, spelling and data errors. Pay special attention to the author order and presenting author designation.
- All abstracts must be reviewed, edited and approved by faculty mentors before submission. Presenters and their mentors will receive confirmation of abstract acceptance via email.
- Accepted abstracts will be published on LaGuardia’s Undergraduate Research Day website.
- Changes to abstracts or authors will not be accepted after the submission deadline.

- Limit the abstract to 250 words or less. Please spell out all acronyms on first use.
