The annual campus-wide celebration of research and creative endeavors by the University’s undergraduates, graduate students, postdoctoral researchers and other nonfaculty researchers is celebrating its 10th year. 

The event encourages Princetonians to share their work in a way that connects with a general-interest audience through short talks, poster presentations, performances, art exhibitions, demonstrations and digital presentations. Topics will represent a wide range of research and inquiry across the University, including natural sciences, social sciences, engineering, arts and humanities. 

The projects presented can be works in progress or completed endeavors. If you are available and interested in self-nominating to serve as a showcase judge on May 8th, please sign up through the PRD Showcase Google form. Individuals selected to serve as judges will be contacted with additional details. A limited number of judging positions are available. If you are not available on May 8th, but are still interested in serving as a judge, you can sign up to be a PRD Video judge. 

The free, public event will be held in the Frist Campus Center and will conclude with an awards ceremony for outstanding contributions. This year, special awards will be offered in areas including Arts and Humanities, Sustainability, Innovation, Campus Impact, Princeton University Library Awards and more. Applications, which can be submitted through the Princeton Research Day website, will be due on April 30, 2025. 

Early submissions are due April 14, 2025.
