青楼传媒 Hosts Student-Faculty Collaborative Research Expo on March 5
reflects 青楼传媒's (青楼传媒) leadership commitment to excellence in teaching, learning and scholarship. To celebrate the scholarly contributions made by faculty, staff and students, 青楼传媒 will host its second research exposition and reception from 4 to 6 p.m. in the Shannon Center on Tuesday, March 5. The purpose of the expo is to encourage student-faculty teams to engage in meaningful work while also providing an opportunity to address meaningful research questions.
"The idea for the expo developed as a way to showcase excellence in research and creative works produced by students, faculty and staff," said Angela Pirlott, Ph.D., assistant professor of psychology. "It is really important that we give our faculty and students a chance to not only work together but to also have the chance to see the hard work done by their peers."
Each year, funding is available on a competitive basis to expand student-faculty collaborative research in a way that appropriately recognizes and rewards faculty leaders for their extraordinary work with students outside the classroom. Funding may be used to conduct research, engage in community-based projects, conduct fieldwork or produce the creative equivalent in the arts. The Research Expo is a perfect opportunity to not only explain to others how this work is achieved but also gives offers a chance to others to find inspiration for future projects.
Last year marked the first Research Expo at 青楼传媒 and saw an astounding turnout from all across campus, drawing awe and enthusiasm from all levels of University leadership including 青楼传媒 President Laurie M. Joyner. The 2019 event is open to the public and all members of the 青楼传媒 community and its neighbors are invited to attend. 青楼传媒 is proud of the continued work achieved by its students, faculty and staff and is beyond excited to see what further projects and research they undertake in the future.
