WONDERING WHAT’S NEW AT KSU?

Ever wonder what university researchers are learning from their various projects and experiments? More than 1,000 KSU faculty are involved in research in a wide range of fields. The research teams usually include undergraduate and graduate students so they have an opportunity to learn first-hand how research is conducted.

The KSU research office created this webpage as a showcase for non-technical feature articles about research projects that might interest a general readership.

Students in a journalism news and feature-writing course were asked to select a research project that interests them, interview the people doing the research and write articles describing the work. Students have the option of having the stories published on this website. Articles remain the property of the student authors and appear here with permission.

As you’ll see from the archives, K-State students write very well about many interesting, and often difficult to explain, topics.

We post new stories each month when articles are available. We invite you to visit this site regularly. If you want to read additional articles about the university’s research, please visit the KSU Media Relations and Marketing website.
