CHECKLIST TO APPLY TO PRESENT AT SYMPOSIUM
Your research must be approved by your faculty advisor and the OSP. Your advisor must complete the Pathways Approval Form<http://www.tamuc.edu/research/FindFunding/find-student-funding/ResearchSymposiums/pathways/2018_pathways_symposium_awards/Pathways%20Research%20Approval.docx>. The approval form and your research abstract must be submitted by  September 14, 2018 by 3:00 p.m. via email to the OSP (osp at tamuc.edu<mailto:orsp at tamuc.edu>). Only one (1) presenter per submission. If your research abstract is not approved, you and your advisor will be notified.  If you are approved, you will be notified.

There are a very limited* number of participants and judges allowed, so you should submit your approval form and abstract as soon as you can.
  You must also have successfully completed the Responsible Conduct of Research training, as well as the completion of any other required compliance training in order to participate. If you have any questions regarding the training, please contact Ms. Glenda Denton (glenda.denton at tamuc.edu<mailto:glenda.denton at tamuc.edu>) or 903-886-5766. All students must be on an active protocol (IACUC, IBC, or IRB) to apply.  If your advisor feels that no protocol is required, they must submit a statement explaining why no protocol is needed for your research.
All information regarding registration, abstracts, oral, and poster presentations will be posted on West Texas A&M University<https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__pathways.wtamu.edu_&d=DwIGaQ&c=oqyuZuih6ykib6aKiBq22_bich4AVfYGoLertJN0bEc&r=ipRgm7MFqxEwm4jXxXA7TfceI2KGyDX4I4OYfUR5x68&m=6UcGxNEOXh4_FpBfif7-741q_BjkROoMoP7tcFaaEzM&s=Yf_lVulgGf_jiiiFOso3v6XLUjMTniAUBZSAUN-nISo&e=>'s site.
* The number of students will be limited.  Once that predetermined number has been met, the Office of Sponsored Programs will stop accepting any further applications/abstracts and you will be unable to participate in the symposium.  This may occur without prior notice.
