The Annual RMSAWWA/RMWEA Student Research Conference is a forum for graduate students to present water-related research and design projects to their peers and to science and engineering professionals. Undergraduate students involved in advanced research are also encouraged to submit abstracts. The conference fosters networking among students, engineering and consulting firms, local utilities, and university faculty within the Rocky Mountain region. We are welcoming and encouraging presentations on a broad range of research topics in the areas of science and engineering of water and wastewater treatment and reuse.

Due to COVID-19, this year’s conference will be held virtually. This is an opportunity for students that would have been unable to travel to present their research to a wide audience of fellow students and water/environment professionals in the Rocky Mountain region.
