About the Student Research Poster Competition
The college’s annual Student Research Poster Competition showcases the many ways UWM engineering and computer science students are addressing society’s challenges.
Now in its 14th year, this event illustrates the curiosity, passion and abilities of students who attend one of the nation’s top research universities—and the dedication of their faculty advisors who supported and inspired them in their research efforts.
Each year, volunteer judges (including many alumni) from many companies graciously offer their time and expertise. Without them, this event would not be possible. If you think you might like to take part in the 2023 Student Research Poster Competition, please visit this page and click on the “Register to Judge in 2023.” We will get in touch with you as the 2023 competition takes shape.
Finally, the competition is made possible each year thanks to our industry partners. Thank you to Eaton, this year’s platinum sponsor, and Badger Technology Group, Generac, Graef Foundation, Siemens, Strattec, We Energies Foundation and the Family of Michael Krauski.
