Image of Research is an annual multidisciplinary competition celebrating the diversity and breadth of graduate student research at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. It is organized by the Scholarly Commons of the University Library and the Graduate College.
The semifinalists were chosen by an interdisciplinary panel that judged entries on 1) connection between image, text and research, 2) originality, and 3) visual impact.
