Nominate your students' work
The Media School will host its second annual Undergraduate Research Symposium on Wednesday, April 3. The goals of the event are the following:
- To create a school-wide public culture of valuing and recognizing undergraduate research/critical thinking.
- To demonstrate the school’s commitment to research and critical thinking at the undergraduate level (in addition to providing hands-on skills).
- To add the dimension of a “showcased student experience” to undergraduate research and create some excitement around research.
- To expose undergraduates to a mini-simulated conference poster experience.
Below, we request you submit your nomination of the top two or three individual and group substantive research projects/papers from undergraduate classes you taught or supervised in the 2023 calendar year. This might include:
- Both individual and group research projects/papers generated from courses— these should ideally be major assignments.
- Independent research projects that you supervised in 2023, including collaborations with students. Both research-in-progress or published research can be submitted.
- Traditional academic papers based in original research using quantitative or qualitative methods.
- Critical thinking essays on issues/topics/objects/artifacts based in academic concepts and academic research.
