GREENVILLE, Pa.—Thiel College announces its third annual college-wide Student Research Symposium will be from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, April 16 in the James Pedas Communication Center. The event is free and open to the public.
The symposium is an academic forum where students from a variety of disciplines present the results of their research efforts and gain confidence in publicly presenting their intellectual creations. Students from an assortment of majors will give oral and poster presentations.
“The benefits of presenting are many. It is an opportunity for students to gain self-confidence. It strengthens a student’s resume for procuring a job or getting into graduate school,” said Professor of Religion and Director of the Dietrich Honors Institute Curt Thompson, Ph.D. “It demonstrates close working relationships between faculty and students. It shows the significant research students are engaged in as part of their academic work at Thiel College.”
