Clara Miller-Broomfield, senior romance language major, is one of two Truman students who will be attending the first ever World Congress on Undergraduate Research Nov. 13-15 at Qatar University in Doha, Qatar. Conference themes include technology, sustainability, the global and the local, war and peace in the 21st century and global health. Broomfield’s paper, which addresses the latter theme from an interdisciplinary and historical perspective, explores the implications of intercultural exchange for the modern context. Her research has been made possible by grants from the Office of Student Research and supported by the School of Arts and Letters and the Department of Classical and Modern Languages.
