Another prompt will appear and it will ask you to choose the times that you are available to serve as a judge. You may choose as many options as you would like.

What will I be judging?

Undergraduate student presenters are given the option to present their research as a poster or podium presentation. Undergraduate students are from community colleges and 4-year institutions.

• Podium Presentations:

During the podium presentation sessions, students are given 15 minutes to present their research and take questions from the audience. Students will be asked to present for 7-10 minutes and then answer questions from the audience and judges for the remainder of their time. Podium presentation sessions are 1-hour long, and you will judge the four presenters in the session.

• Poster Presentations:

During the poster sessions, students will present their research with a poster visual aid. Judges will be assigned to poster presentations with content that pertains to or is closely related to their major and expertise. Judges will be assigned 4-5 posters to judge per session.
