About
Each year UMass Lowell students from the University's six colleges and schools gather to present their research work in oral and poster presentations to their peers, faculty and guests. Students present research related to:
- Creative work
- Internship & Co-Op experience
- Community service-learning
- Study abroad
- Thesis research
This annual event provides an opportunity for UMass Lowell undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students to
- Enhance their resume and prepare for graduate school or careers
- Learn to present and communicate scientific work to all audiences including non-scientific fields
- Exchange ideas with other scholars from multiple disciplines and in a supportive atmosphere
- Receive feedback from faculty and scholars in their field
Since the first Student Research Symposium was held in 1997, this event has grown to involve more than 400 students from all the departments across the University, making it the “most inclusive event on campus for students.”
