Exhibitor Information

The Beta Kappa Chi Scientific Honor Society and the National Institute of Science (BKX/NIS) invites you to participate as an exhibitor/sponsor.

This joint annual meeting and undergraduate research symposium is a signature event that allows students and educators to demonstrate the exemplary work that takes place in the following disciplines; Biology, Chemistry, Engineering, Physics, Mathematics, Computer Science, Psychology, Behavioral Science, and Science Education.

We are inviting you to bring a “table-top” exhibit designed to be displayed on a 6-foot table and to network with and solicit graduate, internship, fellowship applications, etc., from honor students attending the meeting.

Exhibiting at this meeting will afford you the opportunity to:

• Interview bright, energetic, and articulate young adults seeking entry-level positions, internship opportunities, and summer employment programs;
• View their exceptional work presented during the panel sessions;
• Inform these young adults about your company and the kind of opportunities your company offers; and
• Applaud their participation in challenging research and grant programs and mentor promising students for future accomplishments.

The agenda has been designed to allow the students to spend quality time in the exhibit arena and absorb the wealth of information that you have to share on behalf of your company or school.

Information regarding exhibitor logistics is listed below. It is important that you pay close attention to the dates and times you are being requested to have your booths set-up and attended. The exhibit hall will remain open throughout the meeting; however, specific times have been set aside for the meeting participants to visit the exhibit hall and meet with the exhibitors. The exhibit hall will officially close at 5PM, Thursday, March 26, 2009.
