2012 Undergraduate Research Colloquium
Celebrating Loyola's Commitment to Undergraduate Research and Scholarship
On Friday, April 13, 2012, the Undergraduate Student Research & Scholarship Committee
held its annual Colloquium. Every year, Loyola University Maryland hosts the Undergraduate
Student Research and Scholarship Colloquium. The competition establishes a campus-wide
forum in which undergraduate research and scholarship can be presented before the
college community. This event not only contributes to the professional development
of participants, it underscores the importance the college places on student involvement
in creative intellectual endeavors.
The finalists below presented their research in open competition for first, second,
and third place cash awards.
