Student Pitch Competition
Monday, July 12, 2021 15:00 UTC
Duration: 1 hour
Registration/Submission Deadline: July 11, 2021
Description: This event will be a live student pitch competition. The live event will kick off with a welcome and introduction, then followed by the live competition where student participants will deliver a 60-second pitch about their research, supplemented by a single slide if desired. The competition will be limited to a maximum of 15 student participants (first-come, first-serve), and the single slide must be submitted during the sign-up (minor changes will be allowed after submission if needed).
Additional information: this event will be an opportunity for students to present themselves to future employers and the research community. Search for a graduate position or your newest team member, and expand your professional network! Two individual juries of either leading academic or industry representatives will select their winner. Bring a single slide and show everyone your most interesting results in 60 seconds!
Participants will be judged on their single presentation slide, their clarity of speech and time management, their clarity of results/research, and the overall impression they would give if this pitch was in a job interview scenario. There will be three prizes awarded, and each winner will receive an IEEE UFFC-S certificate!
