2015 Undergraduate Poster Session

The annual undergraduate poster session was held on Wednesday, April 23, 2015. Eleven students displayed and presented their research. Awards for First, Second and Third place were determined by a panel of judges and presented by Director of Undergraduate Studies and Prof. Kate Scholberg.

Third place prize was a tie between Katrina Miller and Lydia Thurman. Here they are proudly sharing the honor:

Second prize went to Connor Hann for his poster "Growth of Icosahedral Quasicrystals" displaying research conducted with Prof. Joshua Socolar and Prof. Paul Steinhardt of Princeton University:

First place was awarded to Melody Lim. Her work was on "Observation of Shockwaves in a Suspension of Soft Particles" with Prof. Robert Behringer and Fritz London Postdoctoral Fellow Jonathan Bares.

In addition to placing first Lim was given a special award from Interim Chair and Prof. Daniel Gauthier. Here he is presenting her with a humorous piece of mail he was sent earlier this year and saved to share with the top poster presenter.

Congratulations to all the students on their hard work and completing this milestone. For all pictures from the event, please visit our Flickr album here.
