Attendees are crucial to the success of the SRS. They provide feedback, volunteer
their time, and interact with participants so they can get the valuable experience
of discussing their research. There are a number of ways attendees can contribute.
Check out the information below for more details.
Current NMT Students (Undergraduate & Graduate)
Even if you're not participating in this year's SRS, you should still consider attending
one or all of the events. Your friends, peers, and colleagues will appreciate your
support and you may even learn a thing or two!
Depending on the class, your professor may offer extra credit if you attend (be sure
to register!).
If you're a graduate student, please consider making a contribution to SRS by evaluating
the presenters at the end of each session.
NMT Faculty
We encourage faculty members to offer extra credit to their students if they attend
one or more SRS events. This also boosts attendance, so it's a win-win for everyone.
If you're interested in offering extra credit for one or more of your courses, please
fill out this form and the SRS staff will make sure a sign-in sheet is available for your students.
After the event, we will email the sign-in sheet to you.
Faculty are also encouraged to volunteer as an evaluator please consider making a
contribution to SRS by evaluating the presenters at the end of each session.

as well as receive constructive feedback on their research/project and poster presentation.
They'll also learn about other researchers in their field, and other fields as well.
Networking and meeting like-minded individuals is another benefit of the symposium
participation.

We hope you can join us for this wonderful event!

or the Civil Engineering Showcase. All events are open to the public.
