Welcome to Virtual Research Open House!

Thursday, November 5, 2020

 

Thank you to all the students, judges, and observers who participated in the first ever Virtual Research Open House!

 

Student presenters all prepared a PowerPoint presentation and a three-minute video done in a the style of a Three-Minute Thesis. The video and PowerPoint can be seen under each student's name in the Department/Judging Category headings below. These materials will remain on this website for several more months for viewing at any time.
