There are so many "Congratulations!" to go around this time of year! Proud of our 2nd year students for participating in our annual 2nd Year Symposium. This event gives students an opportunity to present their research and receive feedback in a "professional" setting as the symposium is designed to mimic a job talk for a faculty position or presenting at a conference.
