NATCHITOCHES – Northwestern State University will host the 34th annual Research Day Thursday, April 22. Sponsored by the NSU Research Council, the event recognizes faculty, staff and students for scholarly or creative projects.
This year’s virtual conference will include synchronous oral presentation (15 minutes plus five minutes for questions), asynchronous virtual poster sessions with chat features for answering questions and a new session for five-minute prerecorded oral presentation, also with a chat feature for questions.
Faculty, graduate students and undergraduate students are invited to submit proposals to present their scholarly or creative projects. The deadline to apply is noon Thursday, April 8. Student applications must have a faculty sponsor.
Faculty may use a Research Day presentation to satisfy the dissemination requirement for a Faculty Development Grant received in the past year.
“We hope that faculty will encourage advanced distance learning students to contribute either poster or oral presentations of their research,” said Dr. Betsy Cochran, chair of the Research Council.
To apply to present this year, faculty should complete the online form:
