Graduate students share research projects

Erin Eckstein (center, in blue), graduate student in the George Warren Brown School of Social Work, answers questions about her project “Eating Habits, BMI and Caloric Estimation Among Washington University Undergraduates: An Exploratory Study” during the 15th annual Graduate Student Research Symposium Feb. 27 in the Laboratory Sciences Building. The symposium, sponsored by the Graduate Student Senate of Arts & Sciences in partnership with the Graduate Professional Council and the Association of Graduate Engineering Students, offered an opportunity for graduate and professional students to present their own advanced work to an audience of non-specialists and allowed them to hone the communication skills necessary for grant and proposal writing as well as job interviews.
