The members of the department are proud of the students we mentor. Our students have been very successful presenting their research to professional audiences.  Below are some examples of recent research projects:

2010 Social Sciences Poster Fair

The Social Sciences Poster Fair provides students from the departments of Anthropology, Economics, History, Political Science, Sociology, as well as the Center for Disciplinary Studies and the Kemp Scholars to present their research to a broad Davidson and community audience. The student poster fair is held at the end of the Spring semester and features  original research, with the students present to explain their work and answer questions.  Below are four examples of Economics student's research.
