Haley Brown selected to present at Annual Academic Symposium

Haley Brown of Lake Hiawatha who is a Junior at Centenary University was chosen as one of 19 students to present at its annual Academic Symposium on Thursday, April 6. Her presentation was: “Internship at Mount Olive High School”. The event showcases in-depth research and professional experiences conducted by students, alongside faculty researchers who are experts in their fields.

At Centenary, student researchers and interns are mentored by faculty who are experts in their fields.

“Independent research and professional experiences are hallmarks of the Centenary

University academic experience,” explained David Dauwalder, Ph.D., interim vice president for academic affairs. “Working alongside faculty members, Centenary students develop important career skills, including problem-solving, critical thinking, statistical analysis, and presentation.

Smaller universities like Centenary offer unique research opportunities that aren’t often available to undergraduates at larger universities. That sets our graduates apart on applications for graduate and veterinary school, as well as employers.”

Founded in 1867 by the Newark Conference of the United Methodist Church, Centenary University’s academic program integrates a solid liberal arts foundation with a strong career orientation.

This mix provides an educational experience that prepares students to succeed in the increasingly global and interdependent world.

The University’s main campus is located in Hackettstown, with its equestrian facility in Washington Township.
