CBAS Day During Scholars Week 2023
CBAS Day During Scholars Week is a day to celebrate all things CBAS! The day will feature a poster session with awards, departmental highlights, and a keynote address.
The CBAS Day Poster Session will be held in the atrium of the Science Building on March 21, 2023 from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. Students who would like to participate should submit a proposal through the University Scholars Week submission system at https://www.mtsu.edu/scholarsweek/ no later than February 28 at 11:59 pm. With one proposal submission to both the University-Wide Research and Creative Activity Exposition and the CBAS Day Poster Session at the same time.
Prizes will be awarded for the top poster presentations at the undergraduate, masters, and doctoral levels.
CBAS Day Technical Program 2023
Immediately after the Poster Session from 1:00 pm to 2:00 pm in SCI 1003, we will host our keynote speaker, Dr. H. Philip Stahl, Senior Optical Physicist at the NASA Marshall Space Flight Center. His talk will provide interesting information on the development and use of the James Webb Space Telescope. Poster Session awards will be given out in SCI 1003 immediately after Dr. Stahl’s talk.
