A livestream will be available to attend the event remotely and will be provided to all registered attendees.

Faculty Research Lightning Talks

Service Learning

Lightning Talks return to Boise State University this April, and we want to see you there! Lightning Talks is an online event where researchers and faculty speak on interdisciplinary opportunities and how they overlap and work within the research community. Each presenter speaks on their topic for 5 minutes, giving an introduction to their ideas but leaving us wanting more. With quick talks, varying perspectives, and discussions on how these ideas are important to learning and research, you’ll walk away with some unique knowledge and some new topics to delve into. Join us Friday April 14th at 1:00 pm MST for this Lightning Talks topic: Service-Learning!
