CS UNM Student Conference (CSUSC). The conference will be held
on Wednesday March 5, 2008 at UNM in the Student
Union Building Lobo Rooms A & B. The conference will
be composed of research talks, a poster session and a keynote
address. (FREE) Lunch and a (FREE) copy of the proceedings will be provided
for early registrants (through the gracious support of the CSGSA). Note that you do not need to be a UNM
student to receive (FREE) lunch and the (FREE) proceedings

The call for abstracts can be found here.
Information about CSUSC 2007 (last year's conference) can still be found here,
as well as 2006's incarnation here.
Conference Mission: The student research conference has several goals
- For attendees, the conference is designed to promote UNM student research and encourage research collaborations amongst students and attendees.
- For presenters, it is designed to allow new student researchers to experience a formal review process and practice creating and presenting research results in front of a large conference audience.
- For organizers, the conference is designed to allow students to gain experience organizing and running a research conference.
Registration Info: Early registration ends
at 5:00pm on Friday, February 22nd.
To register, simply send an email to
