CAST Award Announcement: To recognize a student for an oral presentation delivered at the AIChE Annual Meeting starting this year CAST is establishing the CAST Director's Student Presentation Award. A person who presents an oral presentation and was an undergraduate or graduate student when the abstract was submitted is eligible for applying for this award. An award can be shared with multiple students in the case of a tie vote in the awards committee or if multiple students orally present the winning presentation. To be eligible, the student must be a member of the CAST division and present a paper at the Annual Meeting in a CAST-sponsored (or co-sponsored) session. The nomination for this award should be made by the student’s research advisor. Each advisor may submit only one nomination and only members of the CAST division can nominate students. A student can receive this award only once. The criteria of this award will be the quality of the technical content as described in the abstract, quality of the presentation slides, and quality of the oral presentation. Note: This year this award will be combined with the CAST travel award. The students selected to receive the travel award will be asked to provide the documents needed (statement of work and power slides) and considered for the presentation award. -- ======================================================================== Dr. Marianthi Ierapetritou Professor Department of Chemical and Biochemical Engineering Rutgers - The State University of New Jersey 98 Brett Road, Piscataway, NJ 08854-8058 Tel: 732-445-2971 FAX: 732-445-2581 Email: [log in to unmask] URL: http://sol.rutgers.edu/staff/marianth/ ========================================================================
