BEES Research Day: Celebrating Student Discovery

Thursday, March 12, 2026

1:00 PM-5:00 PM

You are invited to celebrate student-led discovery at Drexel University's Department of Biodiversity, Earth and Environmental Science (BEES) Research Day on March 12, 2026, in the Papadakis Integrated Sciences Building (PISB). Support our dedicated undergraduate and graduate students who will share engaging summaries of their research posters and and give talks about the latest topics they're exploring as members of BEES and the Academy of Natural Sciences of Drexel University.

From climate change to paleoecology, Drexel’s BEES scientists are actively engaged in conserving and understanding our world. The department motto “Field Experience, Early and Often,” means BEES students roll up their sleeves, pull on a pair of waders, and work side-by-side with faculty experts before they ever enter a classroom. This immersive experience prepares students to become the gatekeepers who will protect our planet and its natural resources.

This event is free and open to all Drexel students, alumni, faculty, and staff.

EVENT FORMAT

• Poster Session 1:00—3:30 p.m. in the PISB Atrium.
• Keynote Speakers 3:30—5:00 p.m. in PISB Room 104.
• Please join us for light refreshments at the conclusion of the event.
