4th Annual Poster Session for Faculty & Student Research
Several hundred members of faculty, students, administrators and other guests participated in New York City College of Technology’s 4th Annual Poster Session for Faculty & Student Research in the Atrium Gallery on November 16, 2006. President Russell K. Hotzler, Provost Bonne August and Dean of the School of Arts & Sciences Pamela Brown brought welcoming remarks to open the session, which was organized by a committee of 11 faculty members chaired by Department of Physics Chair Roman Kezerashvili.
Only about 20 faculty members from the School of Arts & Sciences participated in the first poster session in 2003. This year, there were nearly 60 presenters from fields as diverse as architectural technology, the biological sciences, chemistry, computer science and engineering, graphic arts technology, the health sciences, humanities, mathematics, physics and the social sciences.
“The 4th Annual Poster Session was well received by all,” says President Hotzler, “and provided the faculty with a wonderful opportunity to learn about their colleagues’ interests. I have fostered the need for more faculty research since arriving here and am most pleased to see both the increased efforts and the quality of the work being done.”
The annual poster session “has become a tradition,” says Professor Kezerashvili, that not only enables faculty to exchange ideas and information on their research, but also provides students across the disciplines with opportunities to work with faculty on research projects that greatly enrich their educational experience.”
