Are you on the brink of a new discovery? Perhaps you have academic research, artistic work, or a class assignment that you’d like to share with the NSU community. If so, consider submitting your work for the 2012 Undergraduate Student Symposium, hosted by the Farquhar College of Arts and Sciences.
What is the Undergraduate Student Symposium?
The annual symposium is a one-day event that showcases the outstanding scholarship of NSU undergraduate students. The symposium features student projects and performances through oral presentations, paper submissions, poster displays, and original film presentations.
What kind of work qualifies as “scholarship”?
Projects cover areas ranging from the experimental, the applied, and the computational to the theoretical, artistic, and literary. This includes class assignments and independent projects. The research does not have to be complete—presentations can represent any stage of a project’s evolution, from proposal and literature review to finalized experiments.
Who can submit work?
Undergraduate students from all NSU disciplines are welcome to submit their work for a chance to participate in the upcoming symposium. This is a competitive selection process, as each submission will be evaluated for possible inclusion in the symposium.
Students interested in submitting scholarship should contact their academic division or college for more information, and seek a faculty member as an adviser for their project. The Undergraduate Student Symposium will take place on Friday, April 13, 2012. Applications will be available online beginning Monday, Jan. 9, 2012. The deadline for submissions is Thursday, Feb. 23, 2012, by 11:59 p.m.
