Those who have been here for the past few years might know that REL instituted its own undergraduate research symposium — an annual event that’s now going into its fourth year. (This is quite apart from UA’s campus-wide event — a venue where REL students have also excelled, by the way.)

This year it will be organized, once again, by Prof. Bagger, and will take place on March 29, going from about 9:30 am until 12:30 pm, in Gorgas 205. It is part of our 50th anniversary celebrations — more on that soon….

If you’re interested in presenting your original research at this event, research carried out in an REL class, then the first step is for you to talk to your REL professor about how your paper could be revised for the occasion. Papers must be approx. 10 minutes in length.

There’ll be more news about this event in the future, but it’s never too early to start thinking about it. And we hope to make a booklet, like last year, with a sample of our students work, that we’ll once again mail out to people around campus and also to alumni and friends of the Department throughout the country (last year’s is pictured above) — as an example of the interesting work being done by our students.

Want a copy of last year’s booklet?
Just ask at the REL main office.
