Award Competition, sponsored by the Southern Society
for Coatings Technology. This year’s award features cash
prizes and expenses covering one student’s attendance
to the FSCT Annual Meeting and ICE to receive the
award. Submitted papers must describe the results of
original research on a subject related to coatings technology,
or present an insightful and comprehensive
review of a field of coatings technology. The deadline for
submission is Feb. 1.
Students are also encouraged to submit an entry into
the FSCT Annual Meeting Program Poster Session competition.
This competition is designed to provide a forum
for individuals who are involved in coatings research by
serving as a noncommercial area for new ideas, new
techniques, preliminary results, and/or work that is significant
but not fully completed. Each entry will be provided
a display board to highlight their research project
and participants will be required to staff the poster during
certain times. The posters will be judged on originality/
novelty, scientific content and quality of display.
The deadline for entry into the competition is Aug. 30,
however if participants would like to have their name,
research project and institution listed in the ICE 2002
brochure, entries must be received by June 15.
