NEW THIS YEAR
IIE-CIS Division Best IERC Student Paper Award

The IIE Computer and Information Systems (CIS) Division solicits 
applications for the new IIE-CIS Best Student Paper Award at the IIE 
Annual Meeting (IERC 2010) to be held in Cancun, Mexico during June 
5-9, 2010. http://www.iienet2.org/Annual2/

Qualification: In order to be qualified for the award, the students 
must: (a) submit a paper (invited or contributed) for the conference 
using the usual submission process, (b) fill out an application and 
(c) present their work at the conference. Candidate papers will come 
from those submitted to the CIS Track and accepted through the 
regular submission process. The student must be the primary author 
(first author) of the paper as well as the presenting author. If 
multiple students are co-authors, all of their names should appear 
before their advisor(s) in the list of authors.

Eligibility: Only those who will be students (undergraduate or 
graduate students) on the application submission date are qualified 
for the best student paper. That means those who will graduate on or 
after May 2010 will be eligible for the award. For this year alone 
being a new award, we will also allow students that will graduate in 
December 2009. Finally, students must be current members of the IIE 
and CIS Division at the time of paper submission to be eligible for the award.

Application: For those who are interested, after you have submitted a 
paper under the CIS track, send an application package by including 
the following information via e-mail to the Chair of the Award 
Committee Young-Jun Son at son at sie.arizona.edu by February 15, 2010:
1) Your name and contact information (e-mail, telephone), department 
and university
2) Paper information (Paper ID, Title, List of Authors)
3) Advisor's letter proving that you are the primary co-author of the 
paper and that you are eligible.

The judges will evaluate the candidate papers and determine a winner 
by March 31, 2010. There will be one winner, and each award winner 
will receive a certificate.
