December 5, 2006 $1500 in Cash Prizes for Students! Prize Categories:
Judging criteria: Prizes will be awarded by a panel of ECEN faculty judges. All projects and posters will be judged by the following four criteria except the graduate student posters which do not have a demonstration. Each of the four criteria is equally weighted. The judging is completely independent of any grades assigned in courses.
Criterion #1: Presentation materials & project display A poster of approximately 3’ ´ 4’ in size directed at two audiences. One half of the poster should be aimed at a non-technical audience and describe the purpose of your project in a way your friends or parents can understand. The other half of the poster is aimed at a technical audience and describes to engineers your technical approach, the relevant results, and how the project works (block diagram, flowchart, etc.). You may use additional display materials if necessary.
Criterion #2: Demonstration The judges will evaluate each project on (a) how well it works and (b) how well the demonstration is done. Is the demonstration interesting, focused, and short?
Criterion #3: Discussion Can the design team answer technical and non-technical questions? Can the team explain the purpose of the project to a parent or a high school student?
Criterion #4: Attitude This criterion judges students’ salesmanship and marketing skills. Are you enthusiastic and excited about your project? Is your enthusiasm catching?
