TOP THREE REASONS YOU SHOULD PARTICIPATE:

#1: You'll finally get paid for your great idea.

CASH AWARDS given for each discipline/category:
1st place - $200
2nd place - $150
3rd place - $100

#2: This is the kind of experience you can't create for yourself.

Whether this is your first time presenting your work, or you're experienced in these forums, this forum is designed for you. The RCF was created to nurture students in preparation for future presentations. Many students use this opportunity as a "trial run" before they present at a national conference in their field.

Additionally, there are a myriad of opportunities for experienced researchers -- you will be exposed to various community leaders, corporations, potential funding sources, and opportunities for interdisciplinary collaboration.

#3: You'll make connections with great people and receive honest feedback about your work.

Students participating in the Citizens Board Research and Creativity Forum have the unique opportunity of showcasing their research before other students, faculty, administration, the public, and established members of the community. All who attend will be able to provide feedback on your project to help you shape your ideas and presentation for future forums.
