What's the EFSC Exhibition

  • EFSC Student Research Exhibition
    • "Undergrads from all four campuses who completed research projects in the past academic year or who are currently engaged in remote research are encouraged to participate in the Virtual Exhibition, which provides students from all majors and academic disciplines an opportunity to showcase original research, scholarly projects, and creative works to the college-wide EFSC community."







When and Where is the EFSC Exhibition?

  • Virtual (this year)
  • Usually held at Melbourne Campus







How much does it cost

  • Nothing.
  • The college pays for the cost of Transportation to Melbourne Campus.







What is the Exhibition like

  • Elementary school science fairs took their idea and process from academic conference postering sessions.
  • While the impulse may be to cheapen postering as a grade school activity, please reassess to realize that your school was actually reaching far ahead of itself to prepare students for academic postering at conferences.







What do we actually do at the Exhibition

  • We drive to Melbourne Campus
  • We set up posters in the Student Center
  • Each person stands in front of their poster and has conversations with whoever is interested.
  • Because our posters concern Popular sci-fi and fantasy (and about 90% of the posters that day will be hard science), nearly everybody is interested in our posters.
  • Sometimes you won't be able to stop talking.



What's my next step to present at EFSC's Exhibition

  • During the Fall term, we will be submitting posters and abstracts to the EFSC office of Undergraduate Research.
  • Since this is an Exhibition and not an academic conference, most people's work are immediately accepted.
