Faculty Scholarly and Creative Activity Showcase
Tuesday, October 21, 2025 @ 3 - 5 PM in the Student Center Ballroom
The Bruce K. Nelson Faculty Development Center, the Office of Research Development and Administration (ORDA), Graduate Studies and Research & the Undergraduate Symposium are excited to host the 2025 Faculty Scholarly and Creative Activity Showcase to celebrate scholarship, projects, and creative activities recently completed, or currently being pursued, by EMU faculty.
We invite all faculty - tenured, tenure-track, and emeritus - and all lecturers to feature posters, journal articles, books, artwork, and videos or compact discs of performing art, etc., that highlight their own, or collaborated on, scholarly activities or projects, regardless of if/when it was disseminated.
We also invite faculty to come talk about the work they are doing (we would encourage some physical display, however, if only to start conversations). Space will be provided to display poster presentations and artwork, as well as tables to display books, CDs, and DVDs. We also encourage research labs or collectives to reserve a table to share the work being done by your group.
This year, we are pleased to host student attendees interested in learning more about faculty work. Additionally, the Undergraduate Symposium will provide direct support for students who want to engage with faculty to identify potential research and creative project opportunities. Faculty attendees will also receive information about promoting available research opportunities to students.

The Undergraduate Symposium and the EMU Provost's Office are pleased to announce a new tool - ForagerOne. The ForagerOne software provides a scalable digital infrastructure that connects students, faculty researchers, and staff across EMU based on shared and complementary interests. Bringing ForagerOne to EMU is a purposeful step towards creating a collaborative central hub that allows students to search a comprehensive database of faculty researchers’ work that aligns with their interests, helping them discover faculty they might not have found or considered otherwise. The platform can also facilitate interdisciplinary work and collaboration among faculty. If you would like to learn more about the ForagerOne program, contact Amy Bearinger ([email protected]), Event Coordinator for the Undergraduate Symposium.
If you have any questions regarding the submission process or the event, please contact either the Bruce K. Nelson Faculty Development Center ([email protected]) or the Office of Research Development and Administration ([email protected]).
