The CSE Graduate Honors Competition is a mini research symposium in which five doctoral student finalists, one from each area, make 15-minute presentations on their research. The presentations are judged by a panel including CSE faculty and corporate sponsor representatives.
The competition’s purpose is to recognize research of broad interest and exceptional quality being done by CSE’s graduate students. Each finalist receives a certificate of appreciation and a cash award.
