Instructions to finalists
Unlike
mentioned earlier, your Idea will not be presented to the IAB
in the form of a PowerPoint presentation. Instead, your Idea must be
presented on an easel which will be displayed at the IAB meeting.
The CSE department will provide each winning team with $50 for the
easel and any other material they may need.
All finalist teams are invited to the meeting for an open session
with the board members, during which time you will get to discuss
your Idea with them. This way, board members who are not technically
savvy in your particular area of research will be able to interact
with you directly and have an opportunity to understand your Idea
better.
All finalists are also invited to stay for lunch with the board
members.
Please contact Ms. Sherri Warwick at the CSE office to collect $50
for the easel. Your easel with your Idea
should be turned into Ms. Peggie Evans before noon, Thursday
(10/30/2003), at the latest.
While the contents of your easel are up to you, brevity and
simplicity should be emphasized. Remember, the board members may not
be technically savvy in your area of research, and may not
comprehend the Idea if it contains esoteric jargon.
Meeting details:
* Date: Friday, Oct 31st, 2003
* Venue: Rady Room, 6th floor, Nedderman Hall
* Time: 11:45am
