The MSU Museum CoLab Studio is looking for ten passionate students at Michigan State to each give an Ignite talk on their research! You can be any type or level of student at MSU, doing a project in any field of research. Ignite talks are a creative way to communicate one big idea in 5 minutes flat, using only 20 slides that automatically advance every 15 seconds. We want speakers who will connect with the audience as they amuse, educate, enlighten, and inspire them. Previous public speaking or stage experience is not required!
Ignite Talks MSU #6 will be held on Thursday March 12, 2026 at 7-8:30pm at the MSU Museum (409 W Circle Dr). Selected speakers will be notified by January 26th; they will be required to attend a research communication workshop on Thursday January 29th at 5-7pm and a dress rehearsal on Wednesday February 25th at 5-7pm at the Museum.
Looking to attend, not present? RSVP here!
