Help Yellowjacket Psychology Students Share Their Research on a Regional Stage
Your support can open the door to a transformative professional experience for MSU Billings students—one that takes their learning beyond the classroom and onto a regional academic stage.
This March, Yellowjackets are headed to Boise to present their original research at the Rocky Mountain Psychological Association Conference. Operated in conjunction with the MSUB Honors Program, this opportunity allows students to showcase their work, engage with peers and faculty from across the region, and represent Yellowjacket Nation with pride.
Why This Experience Matters
Presenting at a professional conference is more than a line on a résumé. It is a defining academic milestone.
Students refine their research, defend their findings, and gain confidence communicating complex ideas in a professional setting. They build connections with graduate programs, researchers, and future colleagues. They experience firsthand how their work contributes to the broader field of psychology.
These moments elevate students from learners to emerging scholars.
When they return to campus, they bring back sharpened skills, renewed confidence, and inspiration that strengthens classrooms and research communities across MSU Billings.
How Your Gift Makes an Impact
Conference travel can be financially out of reach for many students. Your generosity helps cover travel, lodging, and registration costs—ensuring that every qualified student can participate, regardless of financial circumstance.

-
Expanding access to hands-on, professional learning
-
Investing in student research and academic excellence
-

Thank you for believing in the power of research, scholarship, and opportunity—and for helping Yellowjacket students share their voice beyond campus.
Your support doesn’t just fund travel. It fuels confidence, leadership, and lifelong impact. 💛🐝
