Student researchers to compete at CSUN





California State University Northridge will host the California State University (CSU) Student Research Competition on Fri., April 30 and Sat., May 1, with about 200 students from all 23 CSU institutions expected to participate.


The event is designed to showcase the high caliber of research conducted by CSU undergraduate and graduate students in all academic programs offered by the CSU system, according to campus coordinator Hedy Carpenter, associate director of graduate programs, Office of Graduate Studies, Research and International Programs.


Students will make oral presentations to peers and to faculty judges from surrounding universities and professional experts from major corporations, foundations and public agencies. Traditionally, judges have been drawn from outside the CSU system to assure impartial evaluations and to broaden awareness of CSU student achievement.


Presentations will begin at noon Friday in the College of Business and Economics. From 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday, sessions will be in Manzanita Hall.


The talks are open to the public. For more information, visit www.csun.edu/graduatestudies/studentresearch.htm. The university is at 18111 Nordhoff St., Northridge.
