Northwestern Oklahoma State University’s Alva campus will host the 12th annual Ranger Research Day on Friday, Nov. 17, in the Student Center Ballroom. Students will have the opportunity to display, share and discuss their research with peers, professors and the Alva community.

The deadline for Northwestern student submissions for Ranger Research Day is Monday, Nov. 6.

Graduate and undergraduate students create poster presentations or oral presentations of academic papers of research conducted in one of their classes. All presenters will be encouraged to attend Oklahoma Research Day in spring 2018, which Northwestern will host at Enid’s Central National Bank Center.

There will be first, second and third place winners for each discipline category.

For the category of Arts and Music the disciplines are Art and Design, Music, Theater and Dance.

Along with the research presentations, students within the visual arts will display their art during the event and their work will be judged.

“The public is welcome to attend to see the type of important research being done at the university,” Dr. Shawn Holliday, associate dean of graduate studies, professor of English and director of the Master of Arts in American Studies Program, said. “Any student thinking of attending graduate school should participate since research is such an integral part of graduate study.”

“It is important for Northwestern to have a large number of participants at Ranger Research Day this year,” Holliday added. “These participants can go on and present at Oklahoma Research Day in 2018, which Northwestern is hosting for the second year. Since presenters from all of Oklahoma’s colleges and universities attend this event, I hope to have Northwestern well-represented to show our Ranger pride.”
