Poster Exhibition

The posters are up. As posted earlier, 40 posters were submitted by students. This is an overwhelming response, so much so that there were not enough poster boards to put the poster.

The posters will be evaluated by a panel of judges. Among the criteria are creativity, design, and attractiveness. There would be three main categories; Ph.D., Masters by research, and Masters by coursework.

Winners will receive their prizes during the Graduate Awards Night on Friday, 25 July, at 8:30pm. Good luck to all the students who submitted.
