Student Pitch Competition
Wednesday, September 25

Room: 703 (TaiNEX 2) New room
The Student Pitch Competition will be an opportunity for students to present themselves to future employers and the research community. This is intended to help employers find new team members or postdocs and help students expand their professional network. Two individual juries of leading academic and industry representatives will select their winners. Bring a single slide and show everyone your most interesting results in 90 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 will be provided as if this pitch was a job interview. There will be three prizes awarded and each winner will receive an IEEE UFFC-S certificate.
