WASHINGTON - The Office of Research will host HU Research Month (April 1- 29, 2023). During Research Month, Howard University will celebrate and honor the tremendous level of research conducted by our faculty, students, and research staff. In addition, the expansion to the full month format better enables Howard community to thank external institutional partners who support our research activity, as many of these partners will be on campus throughout the month of April.
The widely acclaimed Research Symposium will take place on April 27 – 28. This signature event brings together students, faculty, and research staff in the Interdisciplinary Research Building (IRB) to discuss their research findings with members of the Howard community, external constituents, and supporters from various federal and local agencies as well as representatives of the philanthropic and higher education community.
