Eligibility
Undergraduate and high school students wishing to present original research in any field of science or engineering, including the social sciences are invited to register.
We are anticipating a large number of students to register, however, space is limited. If more students register than we are able to accommodate, a review panel will determine which presentations will be accepted. A balance of the following information will be considered in their evaluation:
- Date registration form was received. REGISTER EARLY!
- Institution where student is enrolled. We are aiming for representation from many institutions.
- Quality of the abstract.
