The symposium is an inter-college event where students openly discuss the topics explored within each college’s respective theme.
Every RC student will give either a Presentation or a Poster - either as a group or as an individual project. Every RC student will also be an audience member.
At Registration, you will receive a name tag with your schedule on it. The Symposium is organized into two, concurrent, sessions: Session I: 1:30 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. & Session II: 3:10 p.m. - 4:40 p.m.
Until now, steel has been the primary material used for industrial purposes. The recent discovery of a new thinner, lighter, stronger and highly conductive material could provide an alternative to this reliable strong metal. What new material could replace a powerful and useful material such as steel? Not only is this material's molecular structure more sophisticated, it also has chemical properties outweighing those of steel and is also very cost-effective to produce. This material is: Geim and Novoselov. Renewable energy. An atom thick. Pencil lead. Honeycomb (hexagonal) lattice. Element 6 on the periodic table. Nanotechnology. Electrical conductivity.
