On January 26, several Marshall University Computer Science students participated in the 9th annual Undergraduate Research Day at the Capitol in Charleston.
The research day took place at the Charleston Capitol rotunda. Members of the state Legislature and the executive branch were able to talk to the students who created the posters in order to better understand the importance of undergraduate research.
“I am very impressed with the level of expertise shown by our Computer Science majors at the Undergraduate Research Day. I am proud to have them represent the College and Marshall University,” said Interim Dean of CITE, Dr Wael Zatar.
Thirty-two students from Marshall participated and of the nineteen student posters ten were our own Computer Science Students!
