YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) – Yuma’s Northern Arizona University (NAU) held their Second Annual Student Research Symposium.
Several students are putting in the research for their future careers. Over 200 students attended in-person and online to present their projects to reviewers.
Many students said they are grateful for this opportunity to network into their career.
“Just to show off some of our work and what our education is doing for us, what we can do, and hopefully in professional application,” said NAU researcher Cesar Duarte.
“We’re here to advocate, and this is the start of our career, so presenting this is a big thing for us,” said NAU researcher Alejandra Lara.
Each researcher received a digital badge they can add to their LinkedIn profile or digital resume. The co-chair of research symposium says the goal for presenters is to be career ready by 2030.
