It’s a chance to see how ideas grow, how research shapes the future, and how CSM students are preparing to lead when it matters most.

History of the Event

The Scholar Experience builds on a long tradition of student research and presentations at CSM. Since the 1980s, events like Education and Nursing Senior Symposiums, Senior Seminars, and project presentations have highlighted student work across disciplines. Over time, these experiences were brought together into a single, unified event, creating what is now known as The Scholar Experience, a campus-wide celebration of academic inquiry, collaboration, and achievement.
