Students from all four of SU’s schools share their work in oral presentation and poster sessions. In addition, the Outstanding Research Mentor Award will be presented to a faculty member for excellence in guiding student research.
The SUSRC celebrates student scholarship, and artistic and professional achievement and gives students a chance to share their knowledge and developing abilities. Presentations are organized into themed sessions, ranging from molecular biology to music composition, education to economics.
Student research is an international movement in higher education, broadly recognized for giving undergraduate and graduate students a chance to focus their enthusiasm for a subject into the capstone experience of an independent project. This can take the form of a case study, a creative performance or portfolio, or an in-depth study of a problem in any academic discipline.
Faculty increasingly are called on to guide students’ research and creative projects. In recognition of this, the SUSRC presents an annual Outstanding Research Mentor Award, announced at the conference during the poster session (6 p.m.-7:30 p.m.)
A program of the sessions and poster titles will be available at the new SUSRC Web site, /susrc. Chaired by Dr. Suzanne Osman of the Psychology Department, admission is free and the public is invited.
