Full-time graduate students enrolled in a program involving acoustics, or senior undergraduate students expecting to enroll in such a program, are eligible to submit entries. Details and rules are presented below.  \nEntry and Eligibility Requirements  \n1. Posters should be on any Hearing Conservation or Noise Control topic including:  \n(1) Education  \n(2) Sound Surveys  \n(3) Engineering and Administrative Controls  \n(4) Hearing Protection  \n(5) Audiometric Evaluations  \nSo a vast number of potential acoustic project areas are covered. From doing psychological studies on how to better inform the impacted individuals to developing math-model/computer based data analysis techniques.  \n2. A maximum of two (2) poster competitions will be supported annually  \na. If two ASA regional chapters hold competitions in a given calendar year, the winner of each competition will receive a $2500 scholarship.  \nb. If a single ASA regional chapter holds the competition during the year, the chapter may decide to award a single $5000 scholarship or to award two separate $2500 scholarships (if the judging results in two equally meritorious poster presentations) .  \nc. The amount of the scholarship for a winning poster shall not be less than $2500.  \nd. If the winning poster results from the efforts of multiple students, the award  \nnormally will be split equally among the student authors (unless the supporting regional chapter has on hand a letter signed by all the authors, requesting a modified distribution of the scholarship among the participants) .  \n3. The competition shall follow these rules:  \na. Only competitions with a minimum of five (5) eligible entries qualify for participation in the Royster Scholarship Award program.  \nb. The regional chapter responsible for organizing the competition will appoint at least three (3) judges, as well as an individual who will be responsible for ensuring that all relevant information is gathered and submitted to the Committee on Regional Chapters and the national ASA office.  \nc. Judging will be based on scientific merit, the apparent future potential of the  \nstudent(s) to contribute to the general field of acoustics, and relevance of the presentation to the scope of the competition.  \nd. Students formally enrolled at an accredited institution of higher learning and are able to use the scholarship by the following academic year of full-time graduate studies in a program that includes acoustics in the curriculum, are eligible to submit entries. Submitted entries must be accompanied by evidence that satisfies the judges of the student’s eligibility.  \ne. A summary paper should be submitted to the Royster competition coordinator of the chapter, by each poster entry, one week before the competition to allow judges to become familiar with the expected posters and to ensure that the minimum number of eligible entries is reached.  \nf. Each poster should be visually self-explanatory, should also include a 3-5 page summary paper covering the contents of the poster, and may be accompanied by a demonstration or talk. The judges, in making their final decision, should also consider this summary and demonstration or talk.  \n4. Regional chapters interested in organizing a poster competition must inform the Committee on Regional Chapters prior, or at, the Spring ASA meeting.  \na. At the Spring ASA national meeting, the Committee of Regional Chapters will  \nselect the chapters eligible to have a Royster competition during the following calendar year. This allows advertisement and other considerations to be aligned with the school year.  \nb. If more than two chapters request to hold the competition in the same year, preference will be given","cbCaittTRHDyU94q","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaittTRHDyU94q","pdf",19507,"English","# Summary\n# Entry and Eligibility Requirements\n## Poster topics and eligibility\n## Annual competition limits and scholarship amounts\n## Competition rules and judging criteria\n## Submission timing and required materials\n# Chapter Coordination and Reporting Requirements\n## Spring meeting selection process\n## After-competition documentation\n## Scholarship administration and follow-up\n# Program Intent and Fairness Criteria","[{\"question\":\"Who can submit a poster entry to the Royster scholarship competition?\",\"answer\":\"Full-time graduate students enrolled in an acoustics-related program and senior undergraduate students expecting to enroll in such a program are eligible, provided they submit evidence satisfying the judges of their eligibility.\"},{\"question\":\"What topics must the posters address?\",\"answer\":\"Posters should cover hearing conservation or noise control topics, including education, sound surveys, engineering and administrative controls, hearing protection, and audiometric evaluations.\"},{\"question\":\"How is the scholarship amount determined and distributed among authors?\",\"answer\":\"Depending on whether two or one ASA regional chapters hold competitions in a year, winners receive $2,500 each for two competitions or $5,000 for a single competition, with at least $2,500 for a winning poster.
