The semester is winding down, but opportunities for the spring semester are already starting to pop up—and the Spring Scholarship Summit is one that you won’t want to miss. The Spring Scholarship Summit is an open house event that allows MSU faculty to showcase their exceptional research, publications, and initiatives in the realm of teaching and learning. This event presents the perfect opportunity to network with colleagues, share scholarly projects, and celebrate the achievements and work that are propelling our university forward.
Poster proposals for the Spring Scholarship Summit are quick, easy, and painless; all the FCTL needs to consider you for a presentation spot is a few sentences explaining who you are and what you would like to share with faculty. Poster proposals for the 2026 Summit are now being accepted, and the deadline for poster proposals is March 1, 2026—making a Summit poster proposal the perfect thing to think about over the semester break.

The Spring Scholarship Summit is being held on April 15, 2026, from 3:30 – 5:00 pm. This is an open house event, so attendees may come and go freely as is convenient for them.
This year’s summit boasted thirteen presenters from three colleges and eight departments, providing a wide array of essential work across many disciplines and showing just how far our campus community’s passions reach. From library discovery processes and cultural competence research to teaching international children, impactful learning strategies across fields, and more, this event showed that our MSU faculty are making strides in all directions and areas of our academic community. An extra-special thank you to our presenters for sharing their hard work!
