Student Research | StuFoExpo 2022
Have your studies been excellent, but you have the impression that no one has noticed? Student research is an important part of studying at a university. Students unearth important findings as research assistants or members of a university group and present them in seminar papers, final theses or internship reports.
Unfortunately, most of these student research papers go unnoticed. Final theses often get thrown into a drawer and forgotten or are buried deep on a hard drive after they have been assessed.
And that's exactly what the Student Research Expo (StuFoExpo) seeks to change! The StuFoExpo is organized by students for students, with funding from FOSTER and support from the Center for Interdisciplinary Learning and Teaching (ZiLL). All participants have the opportunity to present their project in front of an audience with a short video pitch and discuss their work with the audience during the subsequent poster session.
StuFoExpo 2022
StuFoExpo 2022, the fifth exhibition of student research at TU Dresden, will take place on November 10, 2022 at 4 p.m. About 20 students will present a short video pitch and a poster about their own research projects to an audience. A jury and the audience members will elect the best contributions to be honored with prize money.
Due to the ongoing pandemic, StuFoExpo 2022 will take place in online, as in the last two years.
