Authors Poster Instructions Author's Information (ePapers) Best Student Paper Award		Best Student Paper Award Competition The IEEE SENSORS 2010 Conference announces the Best Student Paper Award Competition to recognize excellence among its student participants. The Best Student Paper Award will be presented at this year's conference in Waikoloa, Hawaii, USA. Twelve (12) finalists will be selected by the Technical Program Committee to make 5-minute oral presentations on the evening of Tuesday, November 2 at the conference. Three (3) winners will be selected from this competition. The announcement and prizes will be announced at the banquet on Wednesday, November 3. To be considered for the competition, the presenting author must have been a student (at least half-time) at the time of the described research was completed and must have been the major contributor to both the written paper and to the research described in the paper. To qualify for the contest, the student must be the presenter of the paper. If you have questions, please contact: [email protected].
