2023 PRESIDENT'S SHOWCASE OF UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH EXCELLENCE
|
The President's Showcase of Undergraduate Research Excellence is an annual culmination of the IDEA Grant, Tech Fellows, and FSU iGEM Programs.
|
|
|
On October 3rd, with sponsorship from the Office of the President, summer research award winners were able to share their research and creative projects through poster and oral presentations.
The students who presented their projects at this prestigious event, enhanced their undergraduate experience by taking on directed research and creativity under the mentorship of Florida State University's most distinguished faculty.
Many of the award recipients will continue their intellectual pursuits through honors theses, independent study projects, graduate research, and entrepreneurial and creative work, both here on our campus and beyond.
Congratulations to our student winners and thank you to all the faculty members who have volunteered their time and expertise to mentor these student researchers!

TALLAHASSEE SCIENCE FESTIVAL

This past September, our FGLSAMP students participated in the 12th annual Tallahassee Science Festival (TSF). The festival showcased sciences, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) through demonstrations, presentations, and hands-on activities. Our FGLSAMP students engaged with the Tallahassee community and promoted their passion for STEM. Some of the activities included games, crafts, and even fun challenges!
The FGLSAMP program's mission is to increase the number of STEM baccalaureate and graduate degrees awarded to historically underrepresented populations.
