On the final day of Research Week over 200 students from area middle schools were made welcome to a presentation of ECSU student research poster presentations in the Student Union Center. Presentations were also given by NASA and funded programs at Elizabeth City State University.
Research subjects included geology, biology, aviation, remote sensing, fisheries, and various other topics. A full listing of the research students and their topics can be found below.
