At NAU, we are proud to have a tradition of excellence that enriches lives and creates opportunities for our students.
One of the incredible experiences we offer students each year is presenting at the NAU Undergraduate Symposium. The Undergraduate Symposium showcases student research and creative activity in the arts, business, education, humanities, and the sciences. The symposium features over 700 student presentations from all disciplines and attracts more than 3,000 attendees from the NAU and Flagstaff communities.
This year is the fifteenth year that all NAU colleges will come together to celebrate this university-wide event on Friday, April 26, from 9 am – 4 pm in the High Country Conference Center, Drury, and 1899 Ballroom.
Student presentations will feature:
Participation in this type of professional conference encourages students’ development of critical thinking, problem-solving, and communication via research and prepares them for a bright future.
