The Spring 2010 Student Presentation Contest is coming up! The North Jersey Section will be holding presentation contests scheduled for March 24 for undergraduate and graduate students. This contest has been held in years past. Its overwhelming success in generating student participation and interest make it a fantastic event for up and coming engineers. This year's contest will feature similar prizes ($$$) and have graduate and undergraduate categories.
The main focus of the presentation contest is to give students an opportunity to sharpen their communication skills, and help prepare for real life situations as practicing engineers and researchers. Additionally, the North Jersey Section contest provides an excellent chance for students to practice for the Region I Student Paper contest in the spring.
The contest at the North Jersey Section level is also supplemented by awarding cash prizes to the three best presentations in both graduate and undergraduate categories. All engineering students are encouraged to participate in submitting team or individual presentations on any project work RELATED to engineering. This LOCAL contest does NOT require students to write a full paper, just a slide-based presentation on technical or non-technical work is sufficient. Senior design projects, lab projects, personal engineering hobbies, engineering policy etc. are great topics to submit. Moving onto the regional contest requires submitting a short written paper.
The details of contest RULES, JUDGING criteria, viable TOPICS for presentations, and ABSTRACT FORM WILL BE SAME AS LAST YEAR. Also, if you would like to get an idea of what topics would be appropriate or how you can prepare your abstract, take a look at winners from past years at the NNJ IEEE SAC homepage archive.
This year's North Jersey Section Contest will be open to graduate and undergraduate students and first/second/third place prizes will be awarded in each category of $100/$75/$50. All participants MUST REGISTER by submitting an abstract by filling in the form available at the North Jersey SAC website to qualify as a contest participant.
