Soundbites
A unique chance to share RI C-AIM work
|
|
This year, we are giving RI C-AIM investigators the chance to submit two-minute video Soundbites to share their research and professional development work from the past two years.
Soundbites submissions, due to RI C-AIM by Wednesday, April 7, will be shared asynchronously with attendees in the weeks prior to the symposium.
On the day of the symposium, Soundbites presenters will be able to network with faculty, institutional staff and students, offering a great opportunity to gain valuable feedback and learn about how their research could fit into future collaborations.
Organized by URI's Metcalf Institute, we are also offering a Soundbites Workshop on Friday, March 26, 9-11 am ET. to anyone interested in learning more about giving creative and informative flash talks like Soundbites. You do not have to submit a Soundbites video to participate. Learn More!

Recognizing that financial aid alone cannot increase retention and graduation in STEM, the program provides awards to Institutions of Higher Education (IHEs) to fund scholarships and activities that support recruitment, retention, and other STEM student success pathways.
