The Horizon is a branch of the Center of Health that focuses on the development of students, faculty, and our community. In the Horizon, you will find resources that can be applied to research and grant writing. We have information about the SPARK Research Club, where students can grow their skills in evaluating and discussing research articles and academic literature. We also have past conversations about news and topics focused on the Chicago community. Stay connected with the Horizon by visiting our many resources, and stay tuned for future opportunities.
What's on The Horizon
Students Pursuing Action, Research, and Knowledge (SPARK) is a journal club under the Center of Health at Northeastern Illinois University. The primary goal of SPARK is to provide undergraduate and graduate students with hands-on experience in understanding research journals, various types of research papers, fundamental research methodologies, and writing grants. In SPARK, students can present and discuss their research findings, share thoughts, and receive constructive feedback from peers and mentors. This provides a collaborative atmosphere where students can improve their research abilities and knowledge with other students.
