Florida Statewide Symposium

FSS 2023

About Us

Flagler College in St. Augustine will host the 16th annual Florida Statewide Symposium (FSS) on Oct. 6-7, 2023. All of Florida's public and private four-year universities and state colleges are invited to participate.

Faculty, administrators, and professional staff have gathered since 2008 for the two-day symposium, which focuses on strengthening and developing undergraduate research. For 10 years, the Florida Statewide Symposium was hosted by the University of Central Florida on its main campus in Orlando. In 2018, the Florida Statewide Symposium began rotating to other Florida campuses as well.

Here's some information for those planning to attend.
