The University of Hawai‘i–West O‘ahu’s Fall 2025 Student Research and Creative Works Symposium, which this semester will feature a new in-person poster presentation format, will be on Wednesday, Nov. 19, in C-208, and on Thursday, Nov. 20, via Zoom, starting at 9 a.m. both days.
The primary aim of the popular student-focused, campus-wide event — the 18th symposium since its inaugural event in 2016 — is to provide an opportunity for dynamic student research learning experiences to be showcased on a variety of topics. Ultimately the goal is to increase the number of undergraduate UH West O‘ahu students with engaged scholarship and research experience.
This semester’s event will feature “a new in-person poster presentation format,” shared Symposium Director Dr. Camonia Graham-Tutt. “This will be something exciting for symposium presenters and attendees.”
The Fall 2025 Student Research and Creative Works Symposium schedule will include:
Wednesday, Nov. 19 (in person in C-208)
- 9 a.m. to noon Poster Presentations
- Noon to 2 p.m. Oral Presentations
- 3 to 4:15 p.m. Roundtable Presentations
Thursday, Nov. 20 (online via Zoom)
- 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Oral Presentations

Graham-Tutt said student presenters at the symposium will demonstrate diversity in their respective fields of study and will benefit by showcasing mentored research that displays both exploration and creativity. Attendees will benefit from viewing research carried out by undergraduate students.
“The Student Research and Creative Works Symposium continues to be an incredible opportunity for students, faculty, instructors, and the entire UH West O‘ahu community,” Graham-Tutt said. “Participants not only gain confidence in their research skills and support for in-person presentations, but make new discoveries about themselves as researchers. Do yourself a favor and mark the upcoming symposium dates on your calendar now!”
