What is the Student Research Symposium?

The Student Research Symposium celebrates student research accomplishments at Lynn University. The event combines two previous events: the College of Arts and Sciences Research Symposium and the Eugene M. & Christine E. Lynn Library Research Paper Award. In 2019, these events were combined into one Research Symposium offered to all Lynn University students.  

Awards are presented for research projects in these categories: 

  • ORAL PRESENTATION: a 10-minute,conference-style talk that includes a digital presentation. Applicants must submit an abstract and attend a required practice session.
  • RESEARCH POSTER: an academic poster presentation of original research. Applicants must submit an abstract.
  • RESEARCH PAPER: an academic research paper (or video) of original research with a clear, arguable thesis that is well-supported by scholarly sources. Research proposals and creative writing are not eligible.

 

Awards are presented for research projects in three categories: technology, natural sciences, and social sciences. Winners will be announced at the Symposium and entered into SPIRAL, the Lynn University institutional repository.

To apply, enroll in the Canvas Course: Student Symposium 2025. Submit the completed form before the application deadline: March 1, 2025.
