National Conventions
2026 National Convention | Past Conventions

 

Alpha Chi holds a biennial national convention where chapters from across the country gather to celebrate student scholarship in an interdisciplinary conference of academic and creative member presentations. It’s held in the spring in a popular destination city.

This three-day event gathers scholars from around the country to share their work—often presenting to a national audience for the first time. With often more than one hundred member presentations, a collaborative research competition, keynote speakers, academic and social networking, a host of awards and prizes, professional development sessions, and opportunities to explore a fabulous city.

Convention Participation Funding

For in-person conventions, chapters have access to generous grants that can make the cost of attendance—including travel and lodging—more manageable on a college student’s budget. Ask your chapter advisor for more information.
