The 2013 National Symposium on Doctoral Reserch in Social Work joins the College of Social Work in its year long focus on "Be the Change" with a keynote focusing on this topic. Presentations will showcase some of the best doctoral dissertation research of recent Ph.D. and D.S.W. graduates in social work.

Abstracts are submitted to and reviewed by the symposium committee and are selected based on their contributions to social work knowledge, research methodology, and contributions to social work practice and policy. Selected abstracts are then paired to form three to seven presentation sessions.

A nationally recognized scholar and researcher is invited to deliver the keynote address focusing on the importance of social work research. Dr. Elizabeth Segal, Professor at the School of Social Work Arizona State University  will deliver the keynote address this year. Recent keynote speakers include Dr. Michael Spencer,   Dr.  Lorraine Gutierrez., and  Dr. Paula Nurius.
