Senior Design Competition at Northeast Bioengineering Conference

The 37th Annual Northeast Bioengineering Conference will have a senior design competition. The conference will be held on the campus of Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute on April 1 – 3, 2011. The senior design competition will be held during the afternoon on Friday April 1, 2011. The judging will be done by industry representatives and there will be cash awards to the winners.
The competition will consist of a poster presentation by the students. There will not be a platform presentation for this event.

For those senior design courses that are ongoing in the spring, 2011 semester, it is reasonable that the projects will not be completed by April 1, 2011 and especially not by the paper submission deadline. Students are encouraged to participate in the competition even though the projects will not have been fully completed. This will be taken into account be the judges. Also if a paper is to be submitted but not ready by the submission deadline of February 1, 2011, papers will be accepted in this category until February 28, 2011.

Please let Stan Reisman, Program Chair, know by January 28, 2011 if you plan to participate and about how many posters they can expect.
