The Student Research Symposium is a celebration of noteworthy student research at Lynn University. This event combines two previous events, the College of Arts and Sciences Research Symposium and the Research Paper Award from the Eugene M. & Christine E. Lynn Library. In 2019, these events were combined into one Research Symposium offered to all Lynn University students.

Awards are presented for research projects in these categories:

• Oral Presentation: a 10-minute, conference-style talk that includes a digital presentation.
• Research Poster: an academic poster presentation of original research.
• Research Paper: an academic research paper (or video) of original research with a clear, arguable thesis that is well-supported by scholarly sources.
