5-Minute Fast Track Preliminary Round #1

The competition will include TWO preliminary rounds on Tuesday, October 15 and Wednesday, October 16 with the Top 5 students from each preliminary round advancing to the Final Championship competition on Wednesday, October 23, 2019.

Undergraduate student competitors will present their research in five minutes, using only one static slide, in front of a panel of five judges and a live audience. The goal of this competition is to improve students’ abilities to communicate their undergraduate research effectively to a general audience while creating a compelling story about their scholarly work.

Registration to compete opens September 5, 2019 and closes October 4, 2019. Check back for a registration link closer to that date.
