Submit your abstract by October 1st to enter the 2021 Research Poster Competition sponsored by SoCalGas and showcase your talent to top Fortune 500 STEM companies before anyone else.
The 2021 Research Poster Competition sponsored by the Southern California Gas Company (SoCalGas) presents college students with the opportunity to showcase their latest research findings through a poster presentation to STEM professionals.
Hundreds of students participate in the GMiS Conference and Career Fair every year and the Research Poster Competition presents participants with the unique opportunity of standing out to recruiters and representatives from renowned STEM organizations looking to hire.
Students are encouraged to present individual and unclassified research – dissertation, thesis, senior project, or co-op, internship, or research experiences. Students may earn monetary prizes and be recognized at the Student Leadership Awards Show. Furthermore, students can further enhance their job search as competition judges may be looking for technical talent to recruit into graduate programs, research labs, summer internships, co-ops, or full-time employment.
Top research posters will receive monetary prizes and award recognition. Students who need financial assistance for registration can contact GMiS for a special rate.
