Attend the Senior Honors Thesis Symposium

The Honors in the Major track culminates in a two semester senior thesis, which includes choosing a topic, finding an advisor, conducting and collecting research, analyzing data, writing the paper, and finally presenting a year's worth of research at the Senior Honors Thesis Symposium. 

We invite and encourage you all to attend the Third Annual Senior Honors Thesis Symposium on Saturday, April 5 at the Pyle Center. The Symposium is an all day event. Registration starts at 8:00 a.m., and the symposium will run from 9:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m. Registration and admission is free, and includes a light breakfast and a lunch for all who attend. Here is a link to the registration site: http://honors.ls.wisc.edu/SiteContent.aspx?prev=1&id=388

Attending the Senior Honors Thesis Symposium will give you a chance to learn more about undergraduate research and about the Senior Honors Thesis experience. We have over 40 students presenting their research in a wide array of disciplines and departments including: Biology, Chemistry, Math, Psychology, Communicative Disorders, History, Political Science, Classics, Anthropology, Philosophy, English, and Art History to name just a few. At the symposium you will have the chance to meet other Honors students, hear about the amazing work of your peers, ask questions about research, and hopefully leave feeling inspired to write a thesis yourself. We would love to see you all there! 

The symposium is broken up into various sessions and each panel will require a moderator. A moderator works to introduce the thesis and its presenter, as well as keep the session running smoothly and on time. If you are interested in serving as a moderator, just send an email to the honors email account (honors@honors.ls.wisc.edu).
