2012 Mar 14

Josephine Kilde of Menomonie Wis., shared original undergraduate research with legislators and other state leaders March 7, during the ninth annual Posters in the Rotunda held at the Capitol in Madison.

Kilde, majoring in information and communication technologies, presented her poster, "Internet-on-demand for Schools in Rural Tanzania."

"These students are fine examples of the student-faculty research being conducted at UW-Stout," said Chancellor Charles W. Sorensen. "These are the kind of projects that result in our students having such phenomenal success after graduating."

Kevin Reilly, UW System president, said the benefits of student research are many. "We know that academic research on UW campuses has a major impact on Wisconsin's economy, and also that it plays a significant role in helping students stay in school, graduate at higher rates and prepare themselves for the workforce of the 21st century."
