Research Symposium Award Winners
NCUIRE, the program that fosters original research projects between undergraduates and faculty mentors, is proud to announce the 2022 awards for best posters. The judges were impressed by every submission and deciding on the best posters was difficult. All participants should be proud of their work and the faculty mentors deserve a round of applause as well. NCUIRE offers two types of conference awards, one based the evaluations of New College professors and one based on student impressions. As an organizer of this event, I am especially thankful of all of the judges who added their insights and the dedicated work of, Ruth Dempsey, Kara Glaser, Brenden Rosenthal, Stacey Kimbell, and Carolyn Starr.
Sincerely,
Eric Swank
Associate Director of NCUIRE
