The Arthur Olsen Student Research Symposium is a gathering that fosters and celebrates student research at the university. The structure of the symposium follows that of a traditional academic conference, and Augustana students from all disciplines are invited and encouraged to present their original research at this forum. The symposium provides the campus and surrounding community an opportunity to see and appreciate the creativity, hard work and ingenuity of its students.
This year's symposium will take place Saturday, April 15, at the Froiland Science Complex. The keynote address will be delivered by Dr. Esther Ngumbi, whose presentation is entitled "Thought Leadership for a Sustainable Future: Amplifying Science, Engaging the Public & Advocating for Food Security."
The Arthur Olsen Student Research Symposium is supported by the Office of Academic Affairs, Civitas Honors Program, Mikkelsen Library and Union Board of Governors (UBG).
