Secondly, the feedback that we get from judges and other colleagues is very valuable.\u00a0We also get to know what other people are doing which helps in building collaborations, which is a\u00a0very important part of research now a days.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The Research Forum is an opportunity for students to showcase their research and creative projects and to receive valuable feedback from faculty judges. Awards for best poster in each category are given and all participants receive recognition.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please click <a href=\"http:\/\/www.graduate.ucf.edu\/news\/news.aspx?id=1534\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The 2013 Graduate Research Forum was a huge success, especially for the college of sciences. \u00a0COS students swept the mathematics, optics, and physical sciences section, as well as placing in other sections. 70 students from the college of sciences competed in the forum.\u00a0 Of those 70, eight placed in their respective groups.
