Rolls Royce Prize for the best 3rd year DPhil poster

The winner of the best poster in the ‘Scientific Conference’ category will receive a one-off cash prize of about 233 EUR (£200). This refers to a poster in the standard format commonly used at scientific conferences. Rolls-Royce sponsors the prize, and the Department of Materials Science at the University of Oxford is responsible for organising it. It is awarded once a year to a single winner, and occasionally jointly to several winners.
