The research efforts of social science majors will be on display Wednesday, April 29, when the Maxwell School hosts its third annual Celebration of Undergraduate Scholarship.
The two-part event will kick off at 3 p.m. in the Maxwell Foyer with a poster session, showcasing research by more than 40 students. Free and open to the public, the session will enable attendees to meet the students, discuss their projects and vote for their favorite poster. The event will feature a rich mix of disciplines, including anthropology, economics, history, international relations, public affairs, political science and sociology.
There will be an awards ceremony at 4:30 p.m. in Maxwell Auditorium. The ceremony will recognize winners of both the poster session and an earlier research paper competition, involving more than two-dozen contestants.
Family, friends and colleagues are invited to attend. For more information, contact Sarah McLaughlin at 443.2253.
