Student paper contests
IEEE Societies offer students the opportunity to submit papers to recognize technical, written, and verbal communication skills. These paper contests offer students the opportunity to showcase their technical knowledge through recognition and awards. Frequently, students are invited to attend and present their paper at a conference sponsored by the Society, exposing students to the technical community beyond the university. The ability to network with experienced professionals in the industry is invaluable when students begin their job search following graduation. Review the paper contest offerings by IEEE Societies and Regions and submit a paper today.
