Each year, Northeastern Illinois University faculty and non-faculty administrators are invited to submit abstracts for the Annual Faculty Research and Creative Activities Symposium held in November.

The annual Symposium provides a unique opportunity to bring together colleagues from different disciplines to share their research and creative activities. In addition, small panels allow for substantive presentations and interdisciplinary discussion. Our symposium furthers the principle of good teaching informed by good research. It provides an opportunity for us to become more aware of the research conducted by our colleagues, and an opportunity for lively dialogue on themes presented.
