Abstract:

Our annual College bowl brings together student teams from area schools’ Chemistry/Chemical Engineering Departments.  Each team includes three students and two alternates, but other students are invited to attend. Questions are selected at random from a preselected list of over 100 Chemistry, Physics, or Engineering questions with time limits for each team’s answer. There will be four or five rounds of questions.  Answers are judged by a panel of engineers that are not affiliated with any of the participating schools.   We require 2 judges.  The panel will grade the responses on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the “perfect” answer.  In the case of a tie, the moderator’s score will be selected to break the tie.

Speaker Background:

There is no speaker for this event, however our distinguished Andy Soos will be moderator for this event.
