At Presbyterian College, students have diverse opportunities to engage in scholarly and creative activities.  They often join faculty members as research assistants on their on-going research projects.  Other students conduct their own independent studies.  All of these efforts move education beyond textbooks and lectures to encourage active learning enriching the academic experience.

Students have many chances to share the results of their scholarly pursuits.  Several departments offer seminars for their majors to present their findings.  The annual Honors Day Symposium provides a time for the campus to acknowledge students’ scholarly efforts.  PC students also share their research results through presentations at regional symposiums and professional meetings where they have frequently won awards for the quality of their presentations.
