Student Participation
Students are encouraged to attend the Conference and will find their participation valuable to their career development. In addition to the technical information gained by attending presentations and visiting exhibits, students will be able to meet and talk with environmental professionals representing a wide range of work experience and employers.
Reduced Registration Rate. The student rate is approximately half the university rate and provides full access to all technical sessions, exhibits and meals. Full-time students are eligible; documentation of current enrollment is required.
Student Poster Competition. Students with abstracts accepted for the technical program as poster presentations will be given the opportunity to participate in a poster competition. Posters will be judged by a panel of experts and the winner in each poster group will receive a $500 prize at the end of each poster reception. Student registrants will be contacted by the Conference Office closer to the Conference to opt-in to participate.
Student Scholarships. A sponsorship opportunity is being offered to fund student scholarships. If funded, scholarship monies will be used to financially support a student’s onsite attendance at the Conference. Scholarships will be open to any student who is enrolled in a 4-year college or university, pursuing a degree in an environmental field of study or similar and will provide conference registration and travel funding.
Scholarship recipients will be selected by a Battelle committee and based on the personal statement of need and the expected benefit shared by the student.
Additional participation information will be published on this page as soon as available. For Sponsors interested in participating, please see the Sponsors and Exhibitors page for the link to the Registration site where sponsorship opportunities are published.
