Going to a Research Conference
- Filed under: College Advice
- Date: Mar 27,2008
I have been working on undergraduate research for several months now. Tomorrow I leave for the Mid-East Honors Association Annual Conference. Going to the conference is probably the most exciting thing I have done in college so far.
My Research Topic - Maximizing Academic Performance through Meditation
This Saturday I will be presenting my research on Meditation and how it can benefit students. I am really excited to present my research. I have yet to write out a paper of my research, but when I do I will probably post it on the blog.
Other Topics at the Conference:
- Is the Stem Cell debate over?
- Causes and Effects of Color
- Holistic Health
- Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder treatments for today’s American Soldiers
- Tracking the Changing Faces of Vampires (sounds interesting!)
- Post modernism: The Dominance of Visual Media in Western Culture
- The Decline of the Print Media and its Successors
The research topics sound very interesting. Hopefully I will be able to see most of the presenters.
Life of an Honors Program
Many schools will also be sharing how their Honors Program has developed, types of courses offered, organizing an honors council, and many more topics that apply to, not only honors students, but all campus organizations and students.
When I get back from the conference I will share with you my experience at my first conference.
