The National Consortium for Specialized Secondary Schools of Mathematics, Science & Technology held its annual student research symposium on the Rensselaer campus June 1-4.

A national alliance of 96 member schools, programs, and centers, the Consortium is dedicated to preparing high school students to become leaders in meeting the challenges of the future and to transforming mathematics and science education.

More than 50 students were selected by their member institutions to attend the symposium at Rensselaer. While on campus, the students provided oral and poster presentations on their research, engaged in interactive activities and discussions with Rensselaer faculty, students, and staff, attended academic workshops, and toured campus facilities.
