The IUPAC Physical and Biophysical Chemistry Division is pleased to announce the Student Physical Chemistry Cartoon Competition for 2013. This is the second time this competition is being held; the first was during IYC 2011 (see Nov 2011 CI). For the 2013 competition, entries should clearly illustrate an aspect of physical chemistry in a manner that can enrich the teaching of physical chemistry.
Awards of USD 100 will go to five students whose cartoons are chosen as winning entries. Entries (one per student) will be accepted until 31 May 2013 from students enrolled at a secondary school or tertiary institution on the closing date of entries. Entry guidelines and entry form can be found online at address below.
The cartoons will be judged by a panel with members from the IUPAC Division of Physical and Biophysical Chemistry. Reviewing criteria (from most- to least-weighted) will include:
- relevance to physical chemistry (research, instructional, and/or application)
- creation of interest, novelty, entertainment value, etc.
- clarity and educational content
- presentation
Submit cartoon and entry forms to [email protected] in either of the following formats:
a. a scanned jpeg image on a single A4 page, with up to 5 panels
b. a PowerPoint presentation of up to 5 slides, each being a cartoon panel
Key Dates
- Submission Deadline: 31 May 2013
- Decision Notification: 30 June 2013
