session 3-GTS.4

Title

Student Team Competition

type

oral

Description

Undergraduate and graduate level student teams (students no more than 28 years of age) present papers on any subject related to space sciences, industry or technology. These papers will represent the work of the authors (three or more students). Students presenting in this session will compete for the Hans von Muldau Team Award. If appropriate, faculty members that advised students during the preparation of their work can be listed as a co-author (never as a first author) and their status of advisors must be clearly indicated. Principle responsibilities for a submitted student conference paper fall with the student authors and as such they must be listed first. The content of the paper should mainly reflect the contribution of the students. Faculty co-authors cannot present the paper or answer questions at the student conferences. The selection of the oral presentations is solely based on the submitted abstracts. We strongly recommend that you submit an abstract with an extensive description of your topic, including a detailed explanation of your contribution and the novelty of your work. Furthermore, a short description how your team worked together to achieve the project goal should be included. Paper accepted for the competition and the presentations will be evaluated along the following criteria: Technical Content, Originality, Practical Application, General Presentation, Knowledge of the Subject. ISEB Student Sponsorship Opportunities for IAC Students from select countries may be eligible for financial support to attend the IAC through sponsorships offered by the International Space Education Board (ISEB) member agencies. Participating countries include: Canada, USA, ESA’s Member and Associate States, France, Japan, South Korea, Australia, South Africa, Egypt, and the United Arab Emirates.
