Research Day Across the Academic Year
Shining a Light on the Journey Towards Discovery: February thru April 2021
IMPORTANT DATES
Live Virtual Showcases: March 3, 10, 17, 24 @ 6 p.m. EST
Culminating Event: April 16. The time is TBA
Research Day “Across the Academic Year” is an opportunity to showcase scholarly work taking place at Spelman College. The students and faculty that poured so much heart into their mission towards discovery and creative productions will be showcased throughout the year.
The physical separation brought on by the pandemic may have momentarily stifled research activity, but it did not bring it to a halt. Please join us during this momentous time as we shine a light on this journey towards discovery.
Virtual Showcase participants will experience the inner workings of visual art, music, social science, and natural sciences just to name a few. Extended Spelman family who have partnered with us as sponsors will also have opportunities to present during the live virtual showcase. Attendees will then have an opportunity to join the speakers in The Presenter’s Lounge at the conclusion of every showcase to continue their conversations (or discussions).
Feb. 17, 2021 @ 6 p.m. EST
The Virtual Showcase Galley will highlight the numerous research and creative works' activities currently taking place by members of our Spelman community throughout the year. Explore oral and poster presentations, performance videos, art galleries, and more. Step into the “Sponsors Corner” and scroll through the variety of opportunities for students. An open invitation is extended to you. Please come back as often as you like!
Culminating Event: Friday, April 16, 2021
