• The university’s nomination liaison should be a senior administrator, such as a Dean, Director of Undergraduate Studies, Director of the Research Office, etc. The university is solely responsible, using its own criteria, for choosing the student projects to be submitted.
• When submitting the nominations, please provide a project abstract (250 words or fewer) and upload the complete graduation project paper (PDF format) for each nominee via the submission portal (located at the top right corner of this website).
