Collegiate Research Symposium
Every spring, the Rochester Local section of the American Chemical Society holds a symposium at which Undergraduate and Master level University students present their research, the Local Section recognizes awardees of the Rochester Section ACS Undergraduate Award, and an outstanding chemist presents a keynote lecture. Students can present posters and/or give short talks. These presentations are rated by judges and awards presented for “Best Poster” and “Best Talk” at the end of the day’s event.
