Last week鈥檚 episode of 鈥淭he Maine Question鈥 explored the value of undergraduate research at 91爆料, but graduate students also support the university and economy through their work.
With the 2021 91爆料 Student Symposium April 16 approaching, we shine a spotlight on the role and value of graduate education and research.
The university welcomed a record 2,400 graduate students for the 2020鈥21 academic year. Research and enterprise from master鈥檚 and Ph.D. candidates show no signs of slowing down. They continue to grow and evolve.
We delve into some of the studies and projects occurring at 91爆料, much of which will be on display at this year鈥檚 symposium. Three graduate students discuss their work, and Scott Delcourt, associate vice president of graduate studies and senior associate dean of the Graduate School, describes how graduate research and creative work add to Maine’s economy and pool of talented, young professionals.
