More than 400 Auburn students set to present creative scholarship and research at annual symposium

More than 400 Auburn University and Auburn University at Montgomery students will present a variety of research and creative scholarship projects at the annual Student Research Symposium, set for March 28 at the Melton Student Center.

The daylong symposium will feature a wide range of graduate and undergraduate student research presentations, covering topics in advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence and machine learning, Alabama agriculture, suicide prevention and mental health, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease, architecture, English literature, African-American history and more.

Students will present their work through poster discussions, oral presentations and creative scholarship displays, with members of the Auburn faculty judging. An awards ceremony honoring top-ranked presentations will be held April 4 at 4 p.m. in the Melton Student Center ballroom.

“A key element of the student symposium is the dialog among the participants from many fields across the STEM, art and humanities disciplines,” said Lorenzo Cremaschi, director of undergraduate research and symposium organizer. “Working with our first-class faculty, students discuss the significant innovation and advances their work could offer to larger research questions and today’s grand societal challenges.”
