Mark your calendar! November 9, 2019 - Salishan Resort - Gleneden Beach, Oregon

The student poster session is a dedicated time when conference participants can view posters and interact with student researchers as they explain their marine-related research and results. This is a chance for students to showcase their research, gain professional experience, and network.

Annual Student Poster Session!

State of the Coast invites contributions from advanced undergraduates (juniors or seniors), recent graduates and graduate students.

We welcome poster submissions from any discipline related to issues and opportunities facing the marine environment: biology, anthropology, law, engineering, policy, chemistry, business, ecology, environmental science, management, and more!
