The 2nd Annual College of Science and Mathematics Summer Research Showcase celebrates the research efforts of our faculty and students. This year's event features 87 posters including 37 posters showcasing the work of externally funded research projects. Funding sources include the National Science Foundation, the National Institutes of Health, the Environmental Protection Agency, Georgia Sea Grant, and other organizations. An additional 20 posters were supported by internal funds such as the COSM Office of Undergraduate Research (COUR). Several student projects have been supported through University endowments established by generous donors to Georgia Southern University. Each poster presented at the showcase includes acknowledgment of its funding source.
