Simposio de investigación para graduados del Excelsior College

Albany, New York—Excelsior College welcomes select graduate students and recent alumni to present their original research at the annual online Graduate Research Symposium on Jueves, octubre 14. The theme for this year’s symposium is Embracing New Frontiers: Innovation, Resilience, and Technology.

Transformative and empowering, the symposium offers those attending an intellectually stimulating and professionally enriching experience. The keynote speaker is Excelsior instructor Kelley Cronin, a nationally renowned expert in homeland security and emergency management and author of several books in these areas. Ethné Swartz, a professor in the Department of Management at the Feliciano School of Business of Montclair State University, is the invited speaker.

“We have an interesting event of invited speakers and graduate presentations,” said John Caron, provost of Excelsior College. “Our students embraced the challenge of the theme: innovation, resilience, and technology, and I am excited for them to share their research.”

Student presentations include: “Blockchain Technology: Current Applications and Future Potential,” “Oncology Smoking Cessation Program; Commit to Quit,” “Technology in the COVID Response,” and “The Making of a Highly Reliable Organization.” At the conclusion of the event, the Ever Upward Prize will be awarded to the outstanding graduate presentation from the symposium.
