Keynote Speaker: March 24, 2010, Time to be announced, Lone Star Auditorium
Frequently Asked Questions
Who will be in the audience?
Faculty (including judges), staff and students from UT Arlington regularly attend the symposia. Friends and family members may attend as well. We encourage you to invite sponsors and others from the general community, especially if they have assisted you with the project or in some manner have helped you to realize your educational goals. Since the audience will be so diverse, members of the Organizing Committee of ACES ask that you prepare your remarks for a general but well-educated audience.
May I submit more than one abstract to the symposium?
The Organizing Committee for ACES echo $settings['year']; ?> asks that students submit only one abstract. If you have been involved in several projects please choose the one which best demonstrates your originality and creativity.
Do I have to have final results, or may I present on a work in progress?
It is acceptable to submit an abstract that describes a work in progress. If you are presenting a work in progress, make sure you address in your presentation your results to date and your future directions for the project.
Does the research or creative project have to be one that I completed here at UT Arlington?
Increasingly, UT Arlington students are completing projects in collaboration with public and private agencies here and abroad. However, each student’s abstract must be sponsored by a faculty mentor employed by UT Arlington.
What if I had a lot of help on the project? Could I list others as co-authors?
Yes, you may. However, faculty mentors should be listed on the space provided on the abstract form. The first author listed is the one responsible for preparation of the abstract, all correspondence with the Organizing Committee, and presentation of the work on March 25. If an award is made, the first author will receive it.
Are there any special events taking place at ACES this year?
Yes! To be sure! Each year, an invited keynote speaker gives a special colloquium during the lunch break.
I need further assistance?
Please contact Joslyn Krismer (aces@uta.edu) for more information.
