Student Research Conference Proceedings

Hosted at the Governors State University Campus from 1995-2015, the Student Research Conference Steering Committee established the following objectives:

1. To provide students an opportunity to present their research work before an audience of their peers, and to use the comments they receive to improve presentations made at professional conferences. 2. To provide a forum to highlight research accomplishments at GSU, and honor students presenting their research work. 3. To generate enthusiasm among student body in general, and encourage them to pursue research and other scholarly activities. 4. To enhance communications in the area of research among the four colleges at GSU. The interactions may also lead to collaborative work among students and faculty of different colleges. 5. To enhance the image of GSU in the area of teaching, as research is considered integral part of teaching at the university level. In the long run larger number of students attracted toward research would enroll at GSU to pursue higher education.

Conference proceedings were edited by Dr. Shailendra Kumar, who also served as Master of Ceremonies.
