Students are also asked to remove their posters at the end of the session. Any poster left on its poster board after 6:30 pm will be removed.
Criteria
The evaluation committee will judge and decide the winner of the best student poster. Main criteria for the best poster selection are presentation and clarity, quality of the poster, the student’s contribution, and scientific and technical merit. The criteria and their breakdown are given: Student Poster Evaluation Criteria [Todd Satogata].
