Since 1947, the ECSC has provided a forum for undergraduates to present their empirical research in the natural, behavioral, and social sciences, computer science, mathematics, and engineering, using the general format of a professional meeting. Students may give platform (oral) presentations, poster presentations, and/or full-length papers. A student who submits a full-length paper must also present either a platform talk or a poster. A major benefit of this conference is the opportunity not only to present one’s research in a scientific setting but also to learn as much as possible from others.
