NEW HORIZONS IN THE APPLIED SCIENCES AND ARTS:
Rethinking and Remaking our World for the 21st Century
2017 ASA Multidisciplinary Research Symposium | November 4th | Southern Illinois University
Hosted by SIU’s College of Applied Sciences and Arts [CASA], the ASA Multidisciplinary Research Symposium is open to faculty, professionals, and students from any discipline, university, or professional organization. This year we are accepting proposals for oral presentations, panel discussions, posters (students only) and workshops that will provide opportunities for students, researchers, and practitioners to discuss the influence and impact of the applied sciences and arts on the future of our planet and our society.
CASA consists of a diverse range of programs that all center on the tangible application of knowledge and technology in the world. We are open to any thoughtful interpretations or reinterpretations of the conference theme as it applies to these fields:
Allied Health | Dental Hygiene, Health Care Management and Administration, Mortuary Science and Funeral Service, Radiologic Sciences, Physical Therapy, and Health Informatics
Architecture, Design, and the Built Environment | Architecture, Interior Design, Fashion Design and Merchandising, Construction Management, and Public Safety Management
Transportation | Automotive Technology, Aviation Management and Flight, and Aviation Technologies
Information Systems and Applied Technologies | Electronic Systems Technologies, Information Systems Technologies, and Technical Resource Management
All initial proposals will be submitted as a 300-400 word abstract. Authors of accepted abstracts will then have the option of submitting a full paper for an additional double-blind peer review. Top accepted papers will be published in The Journal of Applied Sciences and Arts. In addition, the student poster competition will provide a forum for students actively engaged in research or significant course projects to present their work to a jury of esteemed educators and professionals. Top posters will be awarded monetary prizes.
