Nominees for best paper prizes

LAPC 2013 are pleased to present the nominees for the IET best student paper competition. 

There are 5 nominees for the best student paper prize.  All nominees are asked to give a 2 minute oral presentation to all the conference delegates at the first session convened for guest speakers. During the poster session following this, a judging panel will visit each student’s poster in turn and question the student before finally making a decision on the winners.  The IET, which sponsors this prize, award £100, £75 and £50 worth of IET book vouchers to the 1st, 2nd and 3rd place papers.  The winners are announced during the banquet on the night of Monday 11th November.
