SVSU students to present research in two showcase events

Saginaw Valley State University students will cap off the academic year with two events designed to recognize and celebrate their work. On Friday, April 26, SVSU will host the SE&T Symposium and the SVSU Student Showcase. Both events are open to the public, and there is no charge to attend.

The annual SE&T Symposium features the work of students and faculty in SVSU’s College of Science, Engineering & Technology. Students will present original work, including research and design projects and special course work, through both poster sessions and oral presentations. Faculty are invited to present their research through posters or oral presentations. Faculty are also invited to organize a special session such as a panel discussion or workshop.

Poster sessions run from 10:00 a.m. until noon, featuring undergraduate research projects, class projects and senior capstone projects. Oral presentations begin at 1:00 p.m. and last until 3:00 p.m.
