2016 Undergraduate Research Night
Undergraduate Research Night on Sept. 27, 2016, was standing room only during the panel, with current undergraduate researchers answering questions on their research from their peers. From “how did you get your position?” to “what’s an average day like in research?” the panel discussed their personal experiences and gave advice. The event then moved to the second floor of WVH, where PhD and Post-docs stood by posters of ongoing research, ready to answer questions and recruit students to participate in their research.
The 18 projects presented at the event are listed below. You may view PDF versions of the posters for projects that provided them.
