The Graduate School’s public presentation of research outputs for the 2023-2024 academic year, led by Dean Dr. Eliza V. Gamusa, took place on May 24, 2024, at the Administration Building’s 4th floor. This event highlighted the hard work and academic achievements of graduating students.
Public defense is a crucial part of graduate programs and a requirement for graduation. It allows graduate students to showcase their research and expertise in their fields. This year’s defense was more impactful with a panel of evaluators, including Dr. Edelyn Oliverio-Echapare, Director of SSU-Environmental Sustainability Research and Development Center; Dr. Jay G. Abia, District Supervisor of Almagro District, DepEd Schools Division of Samar; and Prof. Edgar M. Guya, City Environment and Natural Resources Officer of the City of Catbalogan, who provided valuable feedback.
Key officials, including Dr. Ramil S. Catamora, Vice-President for Academic Affairs; Dr. Riz Rupert Ortiz, Vice-President for Research, Extension, and Innovation; and Engr. Rhio C. Dimakiling, Vice-President for Administrative Affairs, attended the activity, along with program chairs and faculty, expressing support for the students and gratitude to the evaluators.
The Graduate School is dedicated to maintaining excellence in research and innovation, ensuring graduates can make a positive impact on society through their research outputs.
