Gee Family SURF Poster Competition


The Gee Family SURF Poster Competition was endowed by John Gee (BS ‘56 Mechanical Engineering) and Barbara Gee with the intent of encouraging and supporting excellence in effective scientific poster presentations. Judging of the poster presentations is focused on the excellence of the poster presentation, and not on the significance of the research results produced.

Students presenting posters as a part of this competition are encouraged to learn how to present highly technical information to a general, yet educated, audience. Posters are judged on content, visual organization, and verbal presentation.


Congratulations to the 2024 Gee Family SURF Poster Competition winners!
