The MUCH: Midwest Undergraduate Conference in the Humanities annually invites undergraduate students, from Midwest colleges and universities, to submit any piece of original research-based scholarship in the humanities, including creative work. Presentations may take a variety of forms: 10-15 minute papers, readings, displays, or lecture-recitals. MUCH organizers welcome and encourage scholarship utilizing interdisciplinary approaches and/or engaging with questions of diversity.
Submission Sponsorship
Students interested in making a submission to MUCH should ask a faculty member from their school in their field of research to sponsor the paper. The faculty member should be willing to offer guidance as the student develops and refines the project.
