Welcome to the Nyack Science Research 2022 Annual Symposium
Table of Contents
Introduction
Science research is a three-year program where students pursue independent scientific research projects of their own interests, led by a mentor in the field that they find during the course of the program. After students design and complete their research project, they write a paper and make a poster summarizing their findings and compete in competitions. At the end of every year, students of all grades in the program show off their work in the annual science research symposium.
On this site, you will be able to find more information about each individual student’s work in greater depth and continue to explore the work of students in the program after symposium night is over. We invite you to explore what we have done and ask questions.
