Mae hefyd yn cynnig llwyfan i rai sy’n cyflwyno am y tro cyntaf i arddangos eu gwaith, yn ogystal â lle i gyfarfod a chymdeithasu gyda myfyrwyr o ddisgyblaethau eraill. Mae cofrestriad yn y gynhadledd am ddim i’r holl fyfyrwyr ôl-radd sydd wedi eu cofrestru ym Mhrifysgol Bangor.

Croesewir cynigion ar gyfer cyflwyniadau gan fyfyrwyr ôl-radd o unrhyw ddisgyblaeth. Gall cyflwyniadau fod ar ffurf papurau, darlleniadau, perfformiadau, posteri, ffilmiau ac arddangosiadau amlgyfrwng.
