ECE Student Jishnudeep Kar Wins Second Place in 2022 Graduate Student Research Symposium

Congratulations to Jishnudeep Kar who won second place in the College of Engineering at the university-wide 2022 Graduate Student Research Symposium.

Nearly 200 NC State graduate students presented their research projects this week at the 15th annual Graduate Student Research Symposium, and 27 were recognized as the best presenters in their disciplines. From the College of Engineering, ECE student Jishnudeep Kar won second place.

The research symposium, organized by NC State’s Graduate School and the Graduate Student Association, provides students the opportunity to exhibit their research posters. Judges in each discipline evaluate students on 1) the quality of their research, 2) how well the information was presented in poster form, 3) oral communication about the poster, and 4) creativity and aesthetic qualities of the poster.

All winners receive a plaque and cash prize. First place winners receive $500; second place, $350; and third place, $250.
