Undergraduate students have many opportunities to participate and present research. In 2019, several graduate and undergraduate students presented at the annual Food & Nutrition Conference and Expo in Philadelphia. Katie Stechsculte (Berelsman) presented her work "The Effect of Peer Mentoring on Dietetic Students Success" at the new e-Poster session: Innovations in Dietetics Practice or Education. Picture: Katie is being presented an award for her presentation at FNCE by Tammy Randall, Ohio's Delegate Chair.
