Louisiana Sea Grant is hosting a Coastal Connections Infographic Challenge at Nicholls State University on Thursday, March 23, 2023 at 6 p.m. in the Bollinger Suite of the Bollinger Memorial Student Union. The competition is open to all undergraduate and graduate students at Nicholls conducting coastal research—including, but not limited to the fields of anthropology, biology, design, ecology, economics, engineering, geography, geology, history and sociology.
In this competition, students will use a mixture of visual imagery and text to effectively communicate their research findings. An infographic is a tool that combines imagery, text and statistical figures to easily convey a subject. They help communicate information quickly and clearly. This Coastal Connections Competition focuses on the ability of students to consolidate their ideas, crystalize their research discoveries and share them using the power of visual media.
Each retreat is one-week long and involves travel across the state. Scholars only attend one retreat and indicate their availability on the application. There is no guarantee that you will get the session of your choosing. Trainings, lodging, meals and transportation will be provided by Louisiana Sea Grant at no cost to the students.
