Undergraduates at Kenyon conduct research
projects in the summer, in collaboration with a faculty
mentor. Each student presents a poster on their work at
a public exhibition. For further information on research
with undergraduates at Kenyon, contact the faculty mentors
below. *NOTE: After clicking the pictures on this page, to view the full size JPG file with Internet Explorer, look for the orange JPG expand button to appear in the lower right-hand corner of the Poster JPG and click on it. With Mozilla, simply click anywhere on the image. |
