IEEE Region 5 student presentation competition provides an opportunity to enhance your presentation skills. This competition will focus on the ability to make an effective pitch showcasing the purpose and value of the technical contribution.
Eligibility
IEEE Undergraduate Students, with a current IEEE membership, at universities throughout IEEE Region 5 are invited to compete.
- Team Size: 1 students
- Maximum number of teams: 12
The teams must submit their Intent to Compete form by the deadline to be eligible to compete.
Teams are selected from the submitted pool on a first come first served basis. Selected teams will be notified to register for the R5 conference and participate in the competition. Team substitutions are at the discretion of the competition chair.
The first team from each school to submit an Intent to Compete form will be given preference and subsequent teams submitting an Intent to Compete form from that school will be waitlisted.
If after submitting your team’s Intent to Compete, your team decides it will not be able to compete, please inform the Competition’s Chair as soon as possible so that the next waitlisted team can be accepted into the competition.
The Competition Format will be released at a later time.
