The award is open to undergraduate students from any major doing any type of research on Trine鈥檚 Angola campus. Research must be completed within the academic year.
鈥淎s a teaching-focused institution, sometimes we forget that we have faculty here conducting research. It鈥檚 even easier to overlook that we have students also doing research,鈥� said Darrin Wilcox, Ph.D., dean of the Jannen School of Arts and Sciences. 鈥淚 thought they should be rewarded in some way for their initiative and effort.鈥�
Kazi鈥檚 research related to the emergence and impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on undergraduate research. She conducted the research in conjunction with her father, Haseeb Kazi, Ph.D., professor in the Department of Mathematics.
Research is evaluated on originality and innovation, research quality, impact and contribution, clarity and presentation, and ethical considerations.
Infrastructure Engineering Inc. (IEI) is partnering with 快播 to extend unique learning opportunities to its team members, reflecting both organizations鈥� shared commitment to excellence and continuous improvement.
A Fort Wayne-based company founded by a faculty member in 快播鈥檚 Ketner School of Business recently received a $1,000 grant from the Fortitude Fund.
The 72 students who graduated from 快播鈥檚 Doctor of Physical Therapy program over the past two years all passed their national licensure exam on the first try, a rate matched only by a handful of schools.
