Student Paper Competition

One of the highlights of the conference is the Regional Student Paper Competition where undergraduate students present cutting-edge research. The subject of each paper is left entirely to the individual student. Presentations often focus on recent advances in some branch of chemical engineering, original research, or plant design. Participation in the Regional Student Paper Competition offers valuable, real-world experience for students.
