Held in the MLK Jr. Students Center, this year’s symposium showcased the research of 46 undergraduate students from DSU and other universities, 23 high school students and 29 middle school students.

The students were participants in a variety of summer research programs and science camps, including the programs of DSU’s Advanced Quantum Sensing Research Center and the Optical Science Center for Research & Applications (both funded by the Dept. of Defense), the EPSCoR and HBCU Undergraduate Program funded by the National Science Foundation, the Undergraduate Research Initiative for Student Enhancement, and the Summer Undergraduate Neuroscience Research program both funded by National Institute for Health (NIH).

There were also undergraduate students funded by the USDA “PHAGE” program, there were also presentations by middle school students who worked on group research projects as part of the NIH-funded B2-CARS (Biology, Bioinformatics & Chemistry Academy for Research Scholars) program.

Forty-two faculty members supervised and advised the students in their research.
