Classes that incorporate research into their curriculum offer students opportunities to share their work at meetings and symposia, both at LaGuardia as well as state and Nation wide. One common format to present the results of research is in a poster. Here we showcase some of the posters, including several award winners, presented by LaGuardia students over the years.
