The students had all participated in the SETGO Summer Research Project program at Bowling Green University, studying everything from star dust to algae blooms.
The program gives the students a chance to engage in specific research projects related to their majors.
During the summer research roundup, students displayed poster explaining their work and were on hand to answer visitors'questions.
Dr. Moira van Staaden, who directs the program, said SETGO "really makes a difference in their career trajectory."
The research project shows students, she said, how what they learn in the classroom connects to what is done in field and in the laboratory.
