Spring Student Symposium

The Spring Student Symposium showcases the research and creative work of Ohio Wesleyan students across the academic spectrum. The Symposium provides an opportunity for students to share their work with the OWU community and enter a dialogue that can spur ideas for new projects.

Undergraduate research, performed under the mentorship of expert faculty, is a central component of The OWU Connection. And the annual Student Symposium shows the breadth, innovation, and quality of work produced by Ohio Wesleyan students.
