The Spring 2024 Student Research and Creative Works Symposium — University of Hawai‘i–West O‘ahu’s popular semesterly, hybrid event that provides an opportunity for dynamic student research learning experiences to be showcased on a variety of topics — will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday, April 16, in C-208, and starting at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, April 17, via Zoom.
This student-focused event — the 15th symposium since its inaugural event in 2016 — has benefitted hundreds of UH West O‘ahu students throughout the years, aiming to increase the number of undergraduate UH West O‘ahu students with engaged scholarship and research experience, and also demonstrate diversity in their respective fields of study.
“The spring 2024 symposium has reached a new population of students, our transfer students,” noted Dr. Camonia Graham-Tutt, symposium director and Interim Associate Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs at UH West O‘ahu. “This semester the symposium will include not only student attendees from neighboring islands, but student presenters from Kaua‘i Community College.”
