**There will be no competition for Scholars Week 2019, but will be for future years. **
Undergraduate students may choose (i.e. not required) to participate in the Undergraduate Scholars Showcase (Poster Session) that will occur concurrently with the Undergraduate Scholars Showcase Competition. This competition is open to all academic disciplines. Below is more information about the competition including eligibility requirements and criteria for poster evaluations by judges.
Eligibility
- Undergraduate students may choose (i.e. not required) to participate in the Undergraduate Scholars Showcase Competition that is open to all academic disciplines.
- Posters with graduate student co-presenters are not eligible for the competition. However, graduate students may be listed as contributing co-authors (i.e. non-presenting) and this will not affect poster competition eligibility.
- Because of the large number of posters, only 2 undergraduate posters per faculty member may be entered. Note: there is no limit to the number of student posters that a faculty mentor may have displayed at the Undergraduate Scholars Showcase (Poster Session). The limit applies only to the number of posters judged as part of the competition.
- IMPORTANT! Faculty mentors of students participating in the competition are required to serve as judges in order for their students to be eligible for poster awards. In special circumstances this requirement may be waived. A Scholars Week representative will contact mentors prior to the competition with judging instructions.
