2025 Poster Sessions:

As part of the conference program, the National Hurricane Conference (NHC) is offering the opportunity for students to present their original academic research on Tuesday, April 15, 2025, from 5:30 pm-6:30 pm during the Welcome Reception. Those currently enrolled in institutions of higher education or those academics focused on emergency management related topics are encouraged to submit an abstract for the Annual NHC in April. Presenting at the conference is a unique opportunity for you to share emergency management knowledge and expertise with student peers, conference participants and emergency management professionals while in a more relaxed environment. Posters will be displayed throughout the week in front of the Exhibit Hall.

Guidelines:

Students will find the Full Guidelines and Requirements for the Poster Presentations HERE.

To submit your Abstract please visit HERE and select ‘Poster Session’ as the topic.

 

2025 Student Led Sessions

As an alternative option, the NHC is offering the opportunity for Student Attendees to present their academic research as a Workshop Session during the regular conference hours. Presentations must focus on original research, and the topic must be related to the field of emergency management. Presenters should construct a short PowerPoint presentation that includes the research methodology and data sources used for the project. Participants will have 10-15 minutes to demonstrate their findings. Following the presentation, opportunity will be provided to discuss their topic with a panel of emergency management stakeholders.
