In partnership with the Chih Foundation, the Office of Graduate Studies is happy to present graduate students at USF with Tech Talks!
About Tech Talks
This event is designed to provide opportunities for graduate student investigators to present their research in a clear, insightful manner in a 7-minute presentation. Seven outstanding students will be presenting their current research projects. Talkers will present their research in a quick, insightful, and clear manner.
The audience of faculty and students will engage in a brief Q&A after each presentation.
Faculty judges will select the two best presentations, and these students will receive a travel award for a future conference.
