The Richard Macksey National Undergraduate Humanities Research Symposium provides students across all fields of the humanities the opportunity to share their work in the professional presentation style most common to their fields. Presentations must be on topics in the humanities, such as history, art history, media studies, language(s), music, religion, philosophy, culture, and literature.
The 2025 Symposium will be held in-person on the Johns Hopkins University Homewood Campus from March 20-22, 2025. We welcome applications from undergraduates currently enrolled at any two- or four-year college or university. Conference presentations will be a maximum of ten minutes long and may consist of reading a paper (approximately 1,200-1,500 words) and/or presenting a PowerPoint slideshow.
To apply, you will need a title and brief abstract for your presentation (150-250 words). For application tips, see the Apply page of the Macksey website.
