The Student Research and Creative Works Symposium is a two-day annual event where students from disciplines across campus present their research and creative work to the university community and the general public.
The symposium showcases projects completed by undergraduate and graduate students under the guidance of their faculty mentors. It provides students with an excellent opportunity to showcase their academic accomplishments, explore the research of their peers, and interact with students and faculty across all academic disciplines. Students are encouraged to participate in the symposium as an integral component of their higher education.
