Importance of Showcase
Since its debut in 1999, Showcase has been one of the most distinctive comprehensive Undergraduate Research Days in the United States. Not only is it one of the oldest of its kind, but it has also proven itself distinctive nationally for its inclusiveness. Other campus Undergraduate Research Days are designed for Honors students, graduating seniors, STEM majors, or posters or academic presentations only. Stetson, with its significant emphasis on undergraduate research opportunities in all years and its mandatory capstone in all fields of Arts, Sciences, Creative Arts, Music, and several Business degrees, has a wealth of student posters, presentations, recitals, art exhibits, dramatic performances, and business ventures every year. Showcase also welcomes first-and second-year Honors projects, the best junior recitalists, theatrical performances, and entrepreneurial projects. The day is an amazing kaleidoscope of Stetson’s undergraduate excellence, academic rigor and cutting-edge creativity in ways that other schools can only envy.
In conjunction with Showcase, Donor Relations offers you the opportunity to meet your scholarship recipient before the end of this semester.
