About the Symposium

This event is designed to showcase the research and creative activities of the honors students at Georgia Southern University. Every honors student, in order to graduate as an honors scholar, must complete an honors thesis or project. Thesis presentations feature graduating seniors who are delivering oral presentations of the results of their honors thesis work. As the titles and abstracts in this program indicate, these projects span the realms of inquiry and creativity available here at Georgia Southern University. Also listed in this program are the faculty mentors who have worked with each of these students, providing advice, support, and mentorship as the students have completed these projects.
