This flagship GESC event exists to showcase the excellent graduate student research in the School of Engineering and Applied Science at UVA. It serves as an experiential professional development opportunity for graduate students in the school of engineering at UVA through:

  • Promoting inter-departmental collaboration and networking while providing opportunities for professionals and members of the community to engage with students about their research

  • Fostering communication skills among UVA scholars through representing their research to audiences of diverse backgrounds

  • Providing an environment for graduate students to discover the state of the practice and the possibilities for their research to be implemented in a professional setting

As in previous years before the pandemic, GESC (Graduate Engineering School Council) will host a competitive poster session and podium session for selected graduate engineering students from each department to present their research and be judged based on technical merit, impact and significance of their research, and the clarity of their presentation.
