You will have 15 minutes for your presentation. This should include 1-2 minutes for your faculty mentor to introduce* you and talk about the context of your research, 10‐12 minutes for your presentation, and 1‐3 minutes for Q & A. This schedule will be strictly adhered to in order give all presenters the opportunity to talk about their research. *If your faculty member cannot attend, the convener will introduce you.
Each session must begin and end on time. A convener will be assigned to your session to assist with logistics and timekeeping.
Stay throughout the entire session to support your fellow CURO presenters. Encourage friends and family members to stay throughout the entire session.
