About the Conference

groupGURP is a day-long conference held on the campus of Kennesaw State University to foster development of new researchers in psychology. Historically, presenters have been undergraduate, post baccalaureate, and high school students from the southeast. In 2012, we began inviting junior graduate students (within the first two years of study) to submit abstracts in order to give graduate students a venue for their first conference presentations and give undergraduate students an opportunity to network with graduate students to learn more about graduate school.

Each year we welcome around 150 attendees from approximately 15 colleges and universities across the southeast US, including Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Tennesee, Florida, and Texas. In addition to oral and poster student presentations, attendees can expect a keynote speaker as well as a panel on graduate school or career opportunities. Prizes are awarded to the top student presentations! Click here to find out more about the 2023 conference
