Senior Presentations

2015 Kinesiology Department seniors present final projects

Five class research projects designed and conducted by seniors were presented to an audience of faculty, alumni, administrators, students, family and friends at the end of spring semester.  Each project began with the identification of a research question, a literature review, development of methods, followed by data collection and analysis.  The projects ended with submission of a formal written paper and an oral presentation.
