Science Division Poster Fair 2017


Students who received 2017 Summer Research Fellowships will present their research posters.

Each summer the science division provides opportunities for more than 100 undergraduate students in 8 different departments to engage in scientific research alongside an experienced Calvin faculty member. These opportunities are designed to push students further in their learning as they prepare for a career in the sciences.

Posters representing these summer research projects will be located on all four levels of the DeVries Hall Atrium. Students will be present to explain their research.

Some examples of topics: studying the effect of pollution on fish-eating birds, testing antibacterial agents, testing computer languages used in middle and high school, studying best practices for dosing chlorine in rural community water supplies of Ecuador, hydrogeologic mapping of a region in Honduras, creating interactive visualizations of mathematical concepts, and studying globular star clusters.
