Stevens will hold a special daylong symposium in
April to highlight its research programs and Technogenesis®.
Research Day, scheduled for April 30, will be an annual campus event designed to bring
greater exposure to Stevens research programs, capabilities and achievements, and foster
relationships with industry to offer insight and solutions to their business needs.
The Stevens Alumni Association leadership has been working with the Institute to support
plans for Research Day. “The Alumni Association is very happy to support the new
initiative begun by our provost, George Korfiatis, to showcase interesting research
initiatives that are under way at Stevens,” said SAA President Ed Eichhorn ’69.
Research Day will feature keynote speeches, poster sessions, panel discussions and tours
of research centers on the Stevens campus.
This year’s symposium will focus on Stevens research clusters in three areas:
• Systems and enterprise management and architecture.
• Security-maritime, cyber, information and communication networks.
• Multi-scale engineering, science and technology, with a focus on nano- and
micro-scale systems and devices.
Hundreds of attendees are expected. Invitees will include alumni, industry
representatives, federal and state funding agencies, and the faculty, post-docs, students
and academic colleagues from other institutions who are involved in research programs at
Stevens. There are about 75 principal investigators who have direct involvement with the
research clusters. Research Day is open to all alumni.
Further information will be provided on this site or in SAA print publications in the
future. |
