[Call for Entry] Images of Research Photography Competition 2017

Can you creatively capture the essence of your research with just one photographic image and a short caption?

Theme

Resilience in Research 

Resilience means the capability to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness. What does resilience mean to you as a postgraduate student? When you encounter difficulties in research, what do you do to overcome it? Does someone or something inspire you to push forward? What do you do to manage your stress and negative emotions? Let us know in a photo and a short caption!

Photographic Image

The photo can be anything that captures the people’s attention but must relate to the theme and your research at UNMC. It must not be altered in any way and the faithful representation of what was captured at the time of the shot being taken must be maintained: sharpening and minimal cropping is allowed but digital adjustments of any kind is strictly prohibited. You must be the sole owner of your entry. 

Abstract

Your abstract must be short and snappy: no more than 50 words and explain why the image was chosen and how it relates to the theme. It must be written in plain English and jargon-free to ensure that the general audience can clearly understand it. You must be the sole author of your entry. 

Submission

Submit your entry: photo (in JPEG format) and entry form to graduateschool@nottingham.edu.my no later than 5pm on Friday 17 November 2017.
