Student Research
Showcasing the Sciences at Purchase College
Begun in 1982, the annual Student Symposium provides an opportunity for seniors to present their senior project research to a large audience of peers, alumni, family, faculty, and members of the community. Two concurrent sessions in anthropology, biochemistry, biology, chemistry, economics, environmental studies, gender studies, Latin American studies, mathematics/computer science, political science, psychology, and sociology take place throughout the morning. Seniors who participate in the symposium consider it a highlight of their undergraduate experience.
Our Student Symposium is held every year in early May. Please keep your eye on our events page for details about the next symposium.
