The competition category (i.e., bachelor’s, master’s, or doctoral) should be based on what program the student was in when the work was completed. For example, if the candidate is currently a master’s student and presenting work done while in a bachelor’s program, the competition category chosen should be Bachelor’s. This is true for doctoral students presenting work done in a master’s program or a doctoral graduate presenting work done while a doctoral student. Students have one year from graduation from a bachelor’s, master’s or doctoral program to present in that category.
