DAAPX - Request for Proposals

DAAPX: Symposium on Experiential Design


Wednesday, April 30, 2025 

College of Design, Architecture, Art, and Planning

DAAPX, the college’s signature alumni program, is back. And we want to hear from YOU!

The DAAP Alumni Council is looking for dynamic, TedTalk-style presentations that tell a story about a project that impacts the human experience. Alumni from all majors, degrees and career stages and background are encouraged to submit a proposal. Public art installation? Product design? Environmental graphics? Community development? We want ’em all!  

A few guidelines to consider when submitting a proposal:

  • Projects of all sizes, scopes and subjects are welcome.
  • Proposals for in-person and virtual presentations will be accepted.
  • Virtual presentations are subject to additional review - please indicate your format preference when completing the submission form.
  • Presentations should be short and snappy, sharing a complete story within 10 minutes. 
  • Presentations can include multiple speakers but must remain within the 10-minute timeframe. 
  • Proposals will be accepted through Monday, December 9, 2024.
  • The DAAP Alumni Council will review all proposals and reach out to selected presenters in January.

By showing the diversity of work produced by DAAP alumni, DAAPx demonstrates the power of DAAPers’ educational experience and innate creativity. All alumni with a story to share are encouraged to apply.

We look forward to reviewing your proposal!
