2020 TxACE Symposium – Call for Posters

The symposium will include a student research interaction poster exhibition and competition featuring TxACE research on emerging opportunities and key challenges in analog integrated circuits and systems, as well as related technologies. Awards will be given to the top three presenters (details to follow).

The TxACE Symposium student research interaction poster exhibition and competition will take place in the morning of Monday, October 19, between 10:55 a.m. – 12:30 p.m., and will follow the format in the following way: First, the student will create a one-minute video to entice the audience to join the virtual channel. Afterwards, the audience, including the panel of judges, will have the opportunity to freely discuss your research in separate virtual rooms for each student presenter. We are also asking the student to create a five-minute video of their work, which will be made available to participants before the symposium. Winners will be announced during the closing session of the symposium.
