Papers submitted as part of the year-long University Undergraduate Research Fellows Program are also not eligible for this award. Please specify the course for which the paper was originally written. Students submitting papers for the competition must provide current addresses, so competitors may be informed of the outcome of competition. Papers must be submitted before the end of January of the following calendar year, and the award will be made during the the department's award event in the spring. However, this is not the case.
