Celebrating Scholarly Achievement & Community Engagement

20th Annual Celebration of Scholarly Achievement & Community Engagement (CSACE)

Thursday, April 8, 2027 | McNichols Campus, Whitty Student Fitness Center

The CSACE is an annual university-wide event showcasing more than 200 research presentations, including research posters, artistic displays, robotics, 3D models, lightning talks, and more. The event highlights exemplary work from across all campuses and serves as an opportunity to celebrate the academic, scholarly, and creative accomplishments of our university community throughout the academic year.

2026 Scholarly Publications & Award Submissions

All faculty and staff are strongly encouraged to submit scholarly publications, presentations, and faculty/student awards.

The university encourages all faculty and staff to submit publications and other achievements to the McNichols Campus Library. These records offer a valuable perspective on the intellectual culture and life of the campus community. Submitting your publications to the McNichols campus library creates an official, reportable account of scholarly publications/achievements and becomes an integral part of the University's academic history. It further increases the opportunity for research grants and federal funding opportunities. All publications submitted by December 31 will be featured the following April during the UDM annual Celebration of Scholarly Achievement & Community Engagement research event.
