Faculty Research Forums

Faculty Research Forum and Research Reception

As part of Research Month activities, the Office of the Provost and the Center for Teaching and Learning are sponsoring the annual Faculty Research Forum.  This event will provide an opportunity for all faculty, funded or not, to showcase their research through posters, interactive presentations, exhibits, and personal discussions with their colleagues.  In furthering the University’s goal of fostering a culture of academic excellence, we hope that you will consider participating by presenting your research.  If you have visual materials you want to share, there will be poster boards available (36x48 white tri-fold boards), or you can use your laptop to show slides, run a video, make a web presentation or use software you’ve developed.

Maybe your research is text-based and you feel leery about standing in front of a poster board with a 20-page paper set out page by page.  You can take a different approach.  Bring a few copies of your articles and share them with colleagues.  We will have tables devoted to a variety of areas from the social sciences to theology.  Still another alternative is for a group of colleagues to make a poster presentation together.  No matter how you decide to participate, the important thing is to share your work because you will be contributing to the vitality of the intellectual life at the University.

Concurrently with this event, the Office of Grants and Sponsored Research will hold the annual Research Reception. This honors faculty and administrators who have secured new grants or continued funding support from external sources during the past year to further the education, research and public service missions of St. John’s University.

The Forum will take place on Monday, April 8, 2013 from noon to 3 p.m. in the D’Angelo Center room 416.  Displays may be set up between 11 a.m. and noon that day.  The Research Reception will be held in the same location, with the annual presentation to take place during common hour. If you are willing to make a presentation at the Research Forum, please contact Lisa Getman at the Center for Teaching and Learning (getmanl@stjohns.edu) by Wednesday, March 13, indicating (a) the title of your presentation; (b) a paragraph-long abstract, 300 words or less, describing the research project which will be published in the brochure and on the CTL website; (c) include presenters’ names, College, Department (please note if a co-presenter is a student) and (d) whether you need a table or display board.  Due to limited space, multiple presentations by one faculty member will be given no more than 2 presentation stations, but all abstracts submitted will be printed in the Research Forum booklet.

We will have an area set aside to display reprints of faculty authors’ publications.  Please send at least two copies of a reprint to the Center for Teaching and Learning by March 25 to be included in this display.
