How students are selected

Every year in the spring semester, MSU and Drury University each choose three advanced art history students to give 15- to 20-minute presentations on his or her research.

Faculty select student speakers from a group of competitive proposals. The faculty then guide the students in developing oral presentations for the symposium.

Posters from five art history and museum studies students and alumni will also be on display in Brick City’s west gallery this summer.
