Time: 11:30 am - 1:00 pm
Location: : Abbotsford Campus
Learn about more than a dozen topics in under an hour.
Each year the Research Advisory Council (RAC) and the Research Office invite faculty researchers to be a part of the continued success of the UFV Microlecture series. Our goal is to provide “snapshots” to students and UFV faculty of the range and depth of faculty research, as well as highlight the interdisciplinary nature of their work. This engaging fast-paced event also helps to interest students in research and expose faculty to research other than their own.
Researchers take the stage one after the other for a maximum of two minutes to speak about the exciting findings and implications of their research. The event is generally an hour. Discussion and networking are encouraged afterwards.
Date: February 24, 2016
