Tuesday, April 29, 2014

KEARNEY, Neb. -- University of Nebraska at Kearney students earned awards for independent research and creative projects at Student Research Day.

Taking first place in the undergraduate oral presentation division, was Breanna Carman of Imperial, with co-presenters Stacey Johnson of Inland and Brandi Hill of Bennet, on "The Effects of Law and Order on Perceptions of Police Interrogations."

About 130 students from all disciplines presented their scholarly and creative projects during Student Research Day on April 10. Nearly 80 students presented posters featuring their projects. Others gave oral presentations, musical performances or presented art exhibitions.

Student Research Day highlights UNK's award-winning program in undergraduate research and creative activity, which brings students into faculty laboratories, studios, fields and clinics. Students work independently alongside scholars and are mentored by faculty to explore and build on their knowledge -- managing projects, solving problems and communicating ideas.
