Learning & Research Fair

Since its inception over two decades ago, the Learning & Research Fair has been a wonderful opportunity for faculty, staff, and students to share their research, teaching/learning innovations, creative efforts, and scholarly achievements.

Visit the Fair to get to know your colleagues and students better, learn about and celebrate their scholarly contributions and accomplishments, share your knowledge and expertise, and suggest possible new projects and future collaborations.

Student presenters at the Fair are eligible to compete for awards administered by the Lougheed Center for Applied Learning.

All students (and faculty submitting course entries) will submit abstracts and poster files.

• Staff in the Lougheed Center for Applied Learning will post each entry on the L&RF website. The website will serve as the program for the live event.
• Students who wish to be considered for one of our research cash awards will be asked to engage in judging process.
  • In addition to the poster, they will submit a short video, audio file, or PowerPoint about their research, to be posted on the L&RF website.
  • Judging will take place immediately following the event on May 8 and will run through Friday May 10th.
  • Judges will consider the quality of students’ abstracts, posters, and virtual interactions in their scoring.
• Winners will be announced on campus social media, by email, posted on the Fair website, and posted on this website.
