Every year, as part of the Québec Mines + Énergie conference, university students at the graduate and post-graduate level in the field of geoscience (Earth sciences, mining and metallurgical engineering, environment) are invited to take part in the Geoscience Research Challenge.
The objective of the challenge is to give students the opportunity to present their research work in the form of scientific communications, by producing:
- a poster in the scientific exhibit; and
- a short oral presentation in front of a panel of judges.
There will be two flash presentation sessions open to all, one for master’s students and one for doctoral students. This session is for master’s students.
In total, five scholarships will be awarded to the winners of the challenge: two for the master’s level and two for the doctoral level for the flash presentations, as well as one for the quality of the geoscientific poster in the scientific exhibit.
