LSCCE Graduate Students and Faculty,

 

The Civil Engineering Graduate Student Advisory Council (CEGSAC) is proud to present the 6th Annual Research Symposium taking place on April 25, 2025 – 1:30 p.m. – 3:30 p.m.

We invite you to present the research that you have been preparing over the past year.

 

Twelve (12) industry organizations will attend to review the poster presentations. This will be a great development opportunity for students to present research posters that will be appropriate for audiences that have strong industry and engineering expertise with keen interest in applications of research into practice. Graduate students participating in this event will have the opportunity to communicate research ideas to a critical and constructive audience and sharpen valuable presentation techniques.

 

In addition, prizes will be given for the most innovative, rigorous, well-presented work.

Graduate Students, if your poster needs to be printed, CEGSAC will print for you, if the poster is submitted to CEGSAC by 5:00 p.m. on April 18, 2025
