The Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½\u2019s Research Week is planned for March 30- April 2, 2015 at the Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ Main Campus. Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½\u2019s Research Week is a celebration of student research, as well as a platform for skill building for those already involved and those wanting to get involved in research. Whether you are a graduate student about to defend your thesis or a freshman who is curious about ways you can dive in- Research Week is for you! <\/p>\n
The week kicks off with a day of workshops including Dr. Tim Brown\u2019s Communicating Your Research Workshop- ideal for those planning to present at one of the student research showcase\u2019s later in the week. \u00a0For those students who are not yet involved in research but would like to learn more, Dr. Kimberly Schneider will be presenting Getting Started-Undergraduate Research that will review the research programs at Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½, how to find a faculty mentor, and more! Finally, the day will come to a close with a workshop for ALL Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ students on how to find, apply, and be competitive for National and International Scholarships and Fellowships. This workshop presented by the College of Graduate Studies will offer attendees a look at some of the largest and most prestigious financial awards that students can apply for and how to prepare their applications.<\/p>\n
On Tuesday and Thursday, Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ students from all disciplines across campus will share their research with the Â鶹ӳ»´«Ã½ Community at the Graduate Research Forum and Showcase of Undergraduate Research Excellence respectively. Both open-house style events will be held in the Student Union Pegasus Ballroom and are open to everyone. Student presenters will receive faculty feedback, share their work, and compete for cash awards for best in category presentations! These celebrations of student research are also excellent opportunities for students early in their research career to ask questions of others and learn more about their academic disciplines.<\/p>\n
Wednesday will feature three workshops ranging from a panel discussion about Planning for Success in Graduate School, a workshop entitled The Library- Your Research Partner for Finding and Organizing Your Literature, and finally a new addition to student research week- Student to Student: Debunking the Myths of Undergraduate Research, which will allow undergraduates the opportunity to converse with current researchers about how they got involved in research and what the experience is like.<\/p>\n
