The Office of Research and Creative Scholarship at Andrews University is pleased to announce the Call for Papers for the Fifteenth Annual Celebration of Research and Creative Scholarship. The Celebration of Research is an opportunity for faculty and students to showcase their research and for faculty members to connect with students who may be interested in future collaboration.
Faculty are invited to present results from current studies or to share plans for future research. You may choose to give a poster (preferred) or an oral presentation during a breakout session.
Graduate Students are invited to present results of their studies. Presentations are expected from recipients of Graduate Research Assistantships or the Graduate Grant in aid of Research, as well as from students whose work has been accepted for presentation at an off-campus conference.
Undergraduate students who participated in off-campus summer research experiences or internships are expected to present the results of their summer work. Also expected to present are research students who are graduating in December and will not be on campus for the 2024 Honors Scholar and Undergraduate Research Poster Symposium.
Undergraduate students are invited to explore research collaboration opportunities with faculty. Co-curricular credit will be available. The Celebration of Research will be held in Buller Hall. The schedule will be as follows:
12:30-2:00 Plenary Session. Plenary addresses to be given by the 2024 recipients of the Siegfried H. Horn Excellence in Research and Creative Scholarship Award, Felix Cortez and Shannon Trecartin.
