Students are invited to submit their research posters for inclusion in the 2019 Global Educational Forum. The deadline is March 1 and the event takes place March 21 in Athens, Georgia. The top four graduate poster presenters and top two undergraduate poster presenters will each receive a cash award along with a certificate and T-shirt. The top 15 presenters, excluding poster awardees, will each receive a certificate of participation and a T-shirt. All other presenters will receive a certificate of participation.
