Seeking Judges for Applied Research Day!
Posted on Wednesday, March 8th, 2017
The Office of Applied Research and Innovation is looking for volunteer judges for the Applied Research Day competition on April 12th, 2017.
Every year, student teams work on applied projects in which they apply knowledge and skills acquired through their field of study. The majority of these projects are showcased on the main Applied Research Day event in April each year. This year’s projects fall into three different categories:
- Science, Engineering and Construction;
- Arts, Design, Business and Management; and
- Information Technologies, Mobile and Web Design.
Judging teams organized according to their domain expertise evaluate each student team’s results, based on novelty/creativity, technical competence, impact, the strength of client-team interactions and communication and presentation skills. Judges will select winners and runners up from each category.
This event provides an excellent opportunity for entrepreneurs and industrial leaders to network with Algonquin’s capable and motivated academic community of students and faculty. The judges will be able to contribute to the overall success of this Applied Research Day by guaranteeing informed and independent assessment of each project’s merits.
If you decide to participate as a judge, please indicate projects classified into which one of the three categories listed above would you like to assess, based on your own experience and domain knowledge.
Those interested in participating as judges, or who have more questions about this opportunity, can contact:
