Student Research Poster Competition Guidelines

• Please discuss the abstract submission with your advisor(s) well before the deadline!  Make sure that your advisor/supervisor/co-authors all sign off on your abstract before submission. All submitted abstracts become public information, so you are responsible for ensuring no confidentiality issues.
• The suggested length of the abstract is 200 - 400 words.
• As a part of the submission process, you will be asked to first pick a topic area from the following list of available topical research areas: 1) General, 2) Catalysis and Reaction Engineering, 3) Food, Pharmaceutical, and Biotechnology, 4) Separations, 5) Environmental, 6) Education, 7) Fuels, Petrochemicals, and Energy, 8) Computing and Process Control, and 9) Materials Engineering and Sciences. Note that posters may be moved to a different topic area by the session organizers if deemed appropriate based on the abstract of the work submitted.
• Consult your advisor/supervisor/co-author if you are unsure which topical area is best for your poster.  For topic selection, focus on the nature of the work that was done, not on pie-in-the-sky applications. For example, fundamental research into new polymeric materials should be submitted to the “Materials” topical area, even if the ultimate applications may be for novel drink bottles, which may suggest “Food”. Only if no topical area seems particularly appropriate for capturing a substantial portion of your work, you may submit it to the “General” topic area as last resort.
• Have a 3-5-minute presentation prepared for people who ask you to walk them through the poster
• In-person competition poster requirements: The live display of poster boards is 3.75 feet wide x 3.75 feet tall (110 cm x 110 cm). Please make sure your poster is slightly smaller so that it fits in the space.
