This year's IPD event will have a dedicated research lightning talk session! This is a brand new addition to the event and we are so excited to see our students shine!
Selected students will have 3 minutes to get on stage, present their research, with an accompanying visual, to audience members and a panel of judges for the chance to win $500! There will be two categories:
- Undergraduate
- Graduate
One winner in each category.
Judging will happen live and the winners will be announced shortly after the presentations.
