2015 Faculty Research Day Outcome Report
Prepared by: Constance Vickers, OSRP
The 5th Annual University of Bridgeport Faculty Research Day proved to be the most successful
year yet with an amazing 129 posters accepted from 118 individuals and an estimated 200 nonpresenting attendees. Posters were submitted in five categories: Undergraduate student, Graduate
student, Doctoral Student, Faculty Competitive, and Faculty Non-Competitive. Twenty-nine
academic programs were represented in the final poster list, constituting eleven Schools and
Colleges. Since its revival as an annual event in 2011, Faculty Research Day has become the
premiere academic event on campus, providing a venue at which the diverse array of research
undertaken by faculty and assisted by students is showcased. The goal of the event is to foster
project collaborations between departments, schools, and colleges as research becomes
increasingly interdisciplinary.
With over 129 posters across five categories, submissions increased by a total of seven posters
compared to 2014. Forty-four of the submissions were Faculty posters, with 18 of those submitted
in the competitive category. The Trefz School of Business represented one third of the Faculty
Competitive Posters and yielded one of the four chosen winners. A total of 85 student posters were
entered into the competition: 23 doctoral, 39 graduate, and 23 undergraduate. The figures below
show the evolution of poster submissions over the last five years. The overall submission of faculty
posters has decreased by three posters from 2014 to 2015, the Division of Graduate Studies &
Research hopes that this trend will be reversed for the 2016 competition.
The diversity of the posters has continued to improve with each year’s competition. Increased
participation from the Trefz School of Business, College of Public and International Affairs, and
the collective Health Sciences division was apparent in this year. From the Health Sciences
division, five student posters were submitted: two doctoral posters from the College of
Chiropractic, two from the College of Naturopathic Medicine, and one graduate poster from the
Fones School of Dental Hygiene. The addition of the Doctoral category may have attributed to
the increase of student participation from Health Sciences.

The Doctoral student category was implemented this year to better attract students in the
professional programs as well as to separate the more experienced students in the Computer
Science and Engineering and Technology Management doctoral programs from their Masters
student counterparts. We saw five doctoral posters from traditionally low-submitting departments
in the Health Sciences and the School of Education, two of which were awarded Honorable
Mentions. This additional category has raised the bar for even higher quality of work by the
doctoral and professional-program students and it proved to be a very tight competition. Graduate
student participation remains steadfast and strong, with increased submissions in non-empirically
based research projects in the Social Sciences.
While the School of Education did submit a poster from their Educational Leadership Doctoral
program, overall participation from the school decreased from 6% of the total submissions in 2014
to only 2% in 2015. A poster from the IDEAL program of the School of Continuing Education
was included in 2015, this was the school’s first time participating in the event, marking the
participation by eleven of UB’s thirteen Schools and Colleges this year. The Physician’s Assistant
Program is the only department to not partake in the competition thus far.
Undergraduate students boosted their submission numbers by 53% compared to last year’s count.
The majority of these students were mentored within the School of Arts & Science (A&S) Biology
department, however submissions from Psychology, Counseling, Computer Science and
Engineering, Interior Design, and World Religion & Politics were also represented. Kathleen
Engelmann, Ph.D., Professor of Biology, amazingly advised thirteen of the twenty-three
undergraduate posters submitted, four of which went on to win awards and honorable mentions.
The vast assortment of the disciplines of our young investigators shows UB’s unwavering
commitment to progressing as research intensive institution.
The percentage of posters capitalized by the School of Engineering decreased from 49% in 2014
to 38% in 2015, however the total number of engineering posters submitted only decreased by
three, which may be attributed to students attending the National Society of Black Engineers
conference in Anaheim, California on the same day as Faculty Research Day. This percentage
decrease also shows the awakening of research projects undertaken by the other schools and
colleges on campus.
Figures 4 and 5 show the participation breakdown of the Schools and Colleges from 2014 and
2015. In these charts “Health Sciences” includes all posters from Dental Hygiene, Acupuncture,
Naturopathic Medicine, Chiropractic, and Nutrition.

the Poster Session; Middle,, Dr. Ashish Aphale, Computer Science & Engineering, presents his Faculty Competitive poster to a student. Dr. Aphale won one of the four
coveted Faculty Poster Awards for his work; Right, Computer Science & Engineering Graduate Student Trinadh Venna (right) explains his “Real Time Robot” to a peer. .
The morning saw a bustling of activity in the Schelfhaudt Art Gallery, where the 118 poster
presenters and an estimated 200 spectators perused the variety of research disciplines ranging from
consumer marketing studies to a novel smart phone application to detect melanoma to an analysis
of women’s suffrage and empowerment efforts in Ethiopia, – and projects everywhere in between.
Five of the undergraduate student posters from the Biology department featured research on the
common plant Arabidopsis thaliana, yet each project was unique in its thesis and methods.
This year was the most highly attended FRD in recent UB history. 267 individuals registered,
including the 118 poster presenters. The Fones School of Dental Hygiene encouraged their
students to attend, and that they did - with over 60 students present at the morning poster session.
The buzz of activity continued on throughout the rest of the event, culminating at the wine and
cheese reception where the awards were announced.
President Salonen and Mrs. Salonen attended the morning poster session and spent time talking
with students and faculty about their respective projects. In the photo below, President Salonen
speaks to Pedro Ramos, a sophomore Biology student about his research on the connection
between thermo-receptors and human emotions.

Keynote
Mark A. Boyer, Ph.D. delivered the keynote speech to a packed Littlefield Auditorium. Dr. Boyer
is a Board of Trustees Distinguished Professor of Political Science at the University of Connecticut
where he is also the Director of the Environmental Studies Major and is Scholar-in-Residence for
the Center for Environmental Science and Engineering. In addition, Dr. Boyer co-directs the
GlobalEd Project, which employs the ICONS simulation as an experimental international studies
venue. He spoke at Faculty Research Day of the importance of stepping outside of our comfort
zones in order to gain collaborative opportunities, a message that resonates with our campus by
the sea, with many of our departments relying on interdisciplinary joint efforts in order to execute
research. He also reminded his audience that failure is a pervasive and natural part of the learning
process and it is critical to make use of failures. Dr. Boyer’s charismatic and amiable personality
sparked discussions of teamwork and collaboration throughout the rest of the afternoon.
