Information for Students
Poster presenters have the option to present their project to professionals, faculty, or researchers serving as presentation judges. Presenting at Intersections provides the opportunity for valuable feedback, recognition through awards or honors, and can be a strong addition to a resume or graduate school application.
Judging from the Undergraduate Research Office is optional. Students can indicate if they wish to be judged on the student registration form. If you select to be judged, you are required to be present for the full duration of Intersections (11:30am - 2:00pm).
Note: Some departments may arrange judging for students in their majors as a requirement for their major. This is a separate process from judging by the Undergraduate Research Office. Please contact your capstone instructor to verify whether this applies to you. You are welcome to still register for judging by URO.
