The Graduate Research Exchange is for all types of research at all levels of design and implementation. Join your fellow researchers to share your knowledge and seek input.

If accepted, students must bring 12 copies of a completed paper to be distributed at the Graduate Research Exchange. Students must also provide an electronic copy of the manuscript for publication on the TCPEA website.
