Student Poster Competition

The Student Poster Competition (SPC) award consists of a certificate, and represents a prestigious recognition of the student’s achievement. Students who are submitting abstracts for presentation are also invited to participate in the SPC (see “Requirements” below for conditions). Furthermore, students are highly encouraged to become a student member of the IEEE and UFFC professional societies. Abstracts submitted by students for the Student Poster Competition will be reviewed by the Technical Program Committee (TPC) of the joint conference. At that time the TPC will select 15-20 finalists for the SPC. The finalists will be notified and asked to produce a poster to be displayed during a special student poster session. At the time of the poster presentation, the finalist is required to be a registered member of IEEE and UFFC. The poster is required independent of whether the student’s abstract has been selected as an oral presentation. The students should check the guidelines for poster presentation for the preparations of their posters. All Student Finalist Posters will be presented at the first day of the conference for judging by a panel of judges representing Program Technical Themes. The posters will remain on display for the duration of the conference. Five awards (one from each theme) will be given and the winners will be announced and honored during the conference banquet.
