Call for Abstracts

To participate, send an abstract describing either a course project or a research project you have completed over the past year. Group projects are welcome, as long as at least one of the group members is an undergraduate.

Submit your abstract by Saturday 4/03/2010 by visiting this link. You can also view the previously submitted abstracts by visiting this link.

Abstracts submitted after Saturday 4/3/2010 will still be considered as long as there is sufficient space at the Photonics Center to display additional posters.

Proceedings

All abstracts will be collected into a Symposium Proceedings that will be distributed to the attendees. Abstracts will be selected for poster presentations at the Symposium. A subset of students will be selected, based on their abstracts, to give 10 minute presentations of their research. At the end of the symposium, prizes for the best posters in various categories will be presented (e.g. most creative course project, most likely to have a positive impact on society, etc.)
