UG researchers - SURC adbstracts due November 1.
The Department of Chemistry at the University of Tennessee Knoxville will be hosting the 46th ACS Southeast Undergraduate Research Conference (SURC) on Jan. 30 and 31, 2014. Abstracts are due by Nov. 1st, 2013. Please encourage your chemistry undergraduate students to attend and present their research.
A tentative conference program is attached. Students will have the opportunity to give an oral presentation or present a poster, tour the department, and attend a Keynote Lecture and Awards Banquette. A total of $2,500 monetary awards will be given to best presentation(s) and poster(s) in each area of chemistry. Graduate recruiting booths will be available all day on Friday Jan. 31st.
With generous support from our sponsors, we are able to reduce the conference registration to $10/student and $0 for minority students. We are also providing up to $200/person travel support for first 10 minority students who submit their abstracts.
Additional information regarding registration, accommodations, and abstract submission is available at SURC website.
