Tsai Best Student Paper Award

An award will be given for the best student paper at ICCM-17. Both Undergraduate and graduate students are eligible, provided that they are enrolled at university at the time of submitting their abstract and are the first author and presenter of the paper.

Students may be nominated by their advisors or themselves using the form.

The deadline for applications is the same as the full paper submission deadline. Papers are submitted in the normal way.

Two regional finalists will be selected from each of the three ICCM world regions and invited to present their papers in a special ‘Tsai Best Student Paper Session’ in Edinburgh. The winner will be presented with the award and $200 at the conference.

The selection will be based on both the quality of the paper and the presentation.

Selection Guidelines:
The technical merit of the work is the most important. The papers will be judged on the clarity and conciseness of the statement of the approaches, procedures, and methodologies for achieving these objectives.

A summary of important conclusions should be included, and these should be substantiated. The significance of the findings, how they contribute to the state of the art, and how they relate to the work of other investigators should be easily determined from the writing.

Effective use of tables and figures, and ease of understanding them, including units, dimensions, legends, labels, symbol and line types and colours etc will be considered.

Presentation quality includes clarity, organisation, audio-visual quality, and timing.
