Dear Colleagues, I invite you to participate in the 18th Annual College of Education and Human Development Research Colloquium at The University of Texas San Antonio on Wednesday, 25th of February 2026. The theme this year is Artificial Intelligence vs. the Authentic Human Mind: Challenges, Obstacles, and Opportunities for Academic Learning Across Disciplines. The Colloquium will be held at the UTSA Main Campus, HEB Ballroom from 3:00 pm – 6:00 pm. The Colloquium will include research presentations and posters and a lively Reception for Camaraderie and Celebration with delicious foods. We invite Faculty, Doctoral, Post-Doctoral, Masters, and Undergraduate Students to submit proposals to present research that address Interdisciplinary and International research.
