GPHC & NCHC
Wouldn’t you like an opportunity to share your class or research project
with other Honors students and administrators via a poster or presentation
at a regional or national conference? Poster presentations are great
resume-builders and they are also a good way to gain experience in making
professional presentations. Each year, Texas Tech University Honors faculty
and staff travel with Honors students to GPHC and NCHC conferences to
present at the regional and national levels.
The Honors College will host students who have not attended GPHC
in the past. These students will not be required to conduct a presentation
or present a poster at this conference. However, preference will be given to
students who will present a paper or poster.
Students interested in attending the GPHC or NCHC conferences must
submit an application to the Honors College by January 31st of each year.
Students who present at GPHC are then eligible to attend the National
Collegiate Honors Council conference the following fall. Costs for lodging,
transportation, registration and most meals will be covered by the Honors
College for those posters or presentations submitted to the Honors College
and accepted by the conference.
