FIRST ANNUAL TAMU
STUDENT RESEARCH WEEK
CALL FOR STUDENT RESEARCH ABSTRACTS
All undergraduate and graduate students who are involved in research at
Texas A&M are invited to participate in Student Research Week, March
23-28, 1998. The goal of Student Research Week is to enhance awareness
of student involvement in research at Texas A&M. It will give students
the opportunity to showcase their research efforts by participating in oral
or poster presentations. Participants may also choose to work with their
faculty advisors to prepare a presentation. Student Research Week will
highlight undergraduate and graduate student research endeavors at Texas
A&M while giving students the opportunity to attend special events relat
ing to the importance of student research. Some of the speakers of the
week include Marye Anne Fox, Vice President for Research at the
University of Texas who will talk about the importance of undergraduate
research, Mike Doyle of the Research Corporation of Phoenix will talk
about the importance of student research as viewed by a funding agency
and Jean Marie DeChant of Notre Dame College will present a talk titled
Creating and Developing Student Based Research Programs.”
Abstracts must be received by the Office of Student Life, 112 Koldus no
later than February 16, 1998. For detailed guidelines please contact Amy
Montgomery or Nancy Sawtelle in the Office of the Vice President of
